Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Buffalo Wild Wings/Instagram

Last year, Buffalo Wild Wings gave away six free boneless or traditional wings if the Super Bowl ended the fourth quarter in a tie. Both the San Fransisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs scored 19 points. Thus causing the game to go into overtime.

Buffalo Wild Wings said that if the big game went into overtime, they would give away six free chicken wings. And they did.

And boy, did they. In fact, they gave away over 2.5 million wings because of that tie.

“Are we crazy for bringing our overtime deal back after last year’s turnout? Maybe! After giving away over 2.5 million wings last year, we know it’s a bold move to bring it back,” said Tristan Meline, Chief Marketing Officer at Buffalo Wild Wings. “For us at B-Dubs, it’s all about the thrill of the game, and we’re pumped to give all football – and wing – fans another chance at scoring big, no matter who they cheer for.”

So, if the Philadelphia Eagles and the Chiefs also end their matchup on February 9th with the same score, we will get six free wings on Monday, February 24, from 2-5p local time.

Here is to hoping that the Super Bowl ends the final quarter with a score of 0-0! I am so over these two teams being in the Super Bowl. Am I the only one?

I have been sleeping with Tubi since 2019, so it has been fun to watch it grow.

It has grown so much that Fox bought it! And because they have, the free streamer is going to air the Super Bowl on February 9th.

Olivia Culpo will host Tubi Red Carpet at Super Bowl LIX starting at 3:30p on game day. The special covers the celebrity, fashion, and culture behind America’s biggest sports event.

Starting on January 28th, Tubi will add an NFL Channel in conjunction with Fox Sports. It will show programming with historical Super Bowls, iconic halftime shows, best of NFL Honors, NFL analysis, and more, which will be announced at a later date.

Until then, you watch one of the thousands of movies or TV shows! I promise you will be sleeping with it too.

A post shared by Kendrick Lamar (@kendricklamar)

The NFL, Roc Nation, and Apple Music announced today who is taking over the Super Bowl Halftime show, and Drake is not going to like it. That is because they asked Kendrick Lamar, and he said yes.

“Few artists have impacted music and culture as profoundly as Kendrick Lamar,” NFL head of music Seth Dudowsky added. “Time and time again, Kendrick has proven his unique ability to craft moments that resonate, redefine, and ultimately shake the very foundation of hip-hop.”

“Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date. And I’ll be there to remind the world why,” Lamar said in a statement. “They got the right one.”

Do you think they got this one right?

This is the second time he has played the SBHS. In 2022, he Rapped out with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Mary J. Blige. Who do you think will be joining him on the football stage? I say Drake will be one of the surprise artists.

The Taylor Swift Effect is a real thing. Don’t believe me? Well, yesterday’s Super Bowl was watched by over 120 million people on CBS. That makes it the most-watched telecast in television history on a single network.

Here is the breakdown that CBS Sports sent out in a press release:

RECORD-SETTING VIEWERSHIP

• Super Bowl LVIII is the most-watched program ever, averaging 123.4 million viewers across all platforms, up +7% vs. last year’s Super Bowl which was the previous record (115.1 million).

• More than 200 million viewers (202.4) watched all or part of Super Bowl LVIII across networks, the highest unduplicated total audience in history and up +10% vs. last year’s Super Bowl (184 million).

CBS LEADS THE WAY WITH LARGEST AUDIENCE EVER FOR SINGLE NETWORK

• • Super Bowl LVIII on CBS led the way with 120.0 million viewers, the largest audience in history for a single network.

  • Super Bowl LVIII capped off a record-setting season for CBS Sports. The NFL ON CBS scored the most-watched regular season since the NFL returned to CBS in 1998 as well as the Network’s best postseason viewership since 1998.

Those numbers are astounding. And CBS needs to pay Swift a bonus because she is a large part of those numbers. Cause let’s be real. The people who helped to break that record were not tuning in to watch the Kansas Chiefs play the San Fransisco 49ers or Usher. They were tuning in for the singer!

I watch the big game every year for the commercials. Others watch for the actual game. And some for the halftime show. However, yesterday, first-timers were checking out because she introduced them to a game that their fathers watched.

And that is amazing! Swift is bringing families together! My friendship bracelet is off to her.

UPDATE: Tracker starring Justin Hartley, which aired after the game, scored a touchdown with 18.4 million viewers and is expected to gain another 7 million by its next episode on Sunday.

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was seen by 3.74 people.

And finally, CBS took the cake with this spin. @fter Midnight scored its most-watched episode ever with 2.03 million viewers. Why is that such a hard sell? The show has only been on since January 16th, and it airs at 12:35a. So it ain’t ever going to see those numbers again.

A post shared by Tiësto (@tiesto)

Tiësto was slated to be the first DJ to play throughout the whole Super Bowl on Sunday, but he had to pull out from the football game.

“Me and my team have been preparing something truly special for months, but a personal family emergency is forcing me to return home Sunday morning,” he wrote. “It was a tough decision to miss the game, but family always comes first. Thank you to the @NFL for the collaboration and looking forward to working with them to deliver something incredible together in the future!”

Family does come first, and hopefully, all is OK with them.

Since Tiësto had to bow out, he will be replaced by Kaskade.
