For 13 consecutive years the Inland Empire has been represented in the Super Bowl. This season Bret Lockett of the AFC champion and three-time Super Bowl New England Patriots is the area resident who adds home town Inland Empire to

the Super Bowl. Lockett, a San Dimas resident, is a three-year veteran out of UCLA. Lockett, who plays safety, has seven career solo tackles. Because of an injury, Lockett won’t suit up on Super Bowl Sunday. Nevertheless, he is still a valued member of the New England Patriots roster with hopes of earning an NFL Super Bowl Champion ring.
