<P> The 39th season of MNF ended on December 22, 2008, when the Bears beat the Green Bay Packers, 20--17, in overtime at home at Soldier Field in Chicago . </P> <P> The title sequence for the 40th season of Monday Night Football featured Hank Williams, Jr. seen on the steps of a building (presumably a museum), surrounded by dancers, football fans, and statues / busts--which, along with everyone else in the scene, begin to move and dance--patterned after those at the Pro Football Hall of Fame . The transition to Williams Jr. is a book, with the chapter number (in Roman numerals, sequentially with each week) and a tag line about the game to be played that night . </P> <P> At the end of the song, Williams Jr. plugged in the cords, thereby launching animated "helmets" into space, from the building toward the stadium at which the game was held (with the exception of October 5, 2009, when the helmets zoomed towards Brett Favre instead), passing the International Space Station . As with the previous season (as mentioned above), the helmets "land" at midfield during a live shot and then crashed into each other . Williams Jr. appeared again at the end of the telecast to promote the following week's matchup . After that, the picture was freezeframed and the shot zoomed out to the book, which showed the freezeframed picture as part of a page . As this happened, the NFL end - of - game bumper music was played and the book closed, revealing a golden NFL logo on the back cover and signifying the end of the "chapter", or game . The scene was filmed in the summer of 2009 at The Parthenon in Nashville, Tennessee . </P> <P> Before Williams Jr. appears, Frank Gifford gave a short vignette about a memorable moment in the history of Monday Night Football featuring one or both of the teams playing that night's game . </P>
