Art Demmas

Art Demmas was an American football official in the National Football League (NFL) for 28 seasons from the 1968 to 1996 NFL season. During his career as an NFL official, Demmas was assigned to four Super Bowls (XIII, XVII, XXV, and XXVIII). On the field, Demmas wore uniform number 78, which is now worn by Greg Meyer. He now serves as a league representative and observer for the NFL.

During the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XIII, Dallas Cowboys safety Charlie Waters collided with Demmas as he was moving into position to tackle Pittsburgh Steelers running back Franco Harris. Harris scored a touchdown on the play, giving the Steelers a 28-17 lead, and Pittsburgh went on to win the game, 35-31.

A native of Nashville, Tennessee, Demmas played football at and graduated from Vanderbilt University.
