Boy did Cecile and I choose a great Super Bowl (2024) to watch on our big screen TV. It was quite the cliff hanger.
While the San Francisco 49ers held a 10-3 lead at the end of the first half, due to what sportscasters called self-inflicted wounds that kept the Kansas City Chiefs off the score board for most of the opening two quarters, they wound up defeating
the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in an overtime victory.
It was the Chiefs third Super Bowl win in five years, and only the second overtime game in Super Bowl history. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes who has trailed by double digits in all four Super Bowl games he has played, stayed calm, cool, and collected as he rallied his team to victory with the help of defensive lineman Chris Jones who provided some exciting game-changing performance moves. Trailing by a field goal, Mahomes proved his worth once again by connecting with Mecole Hardman in the end zone.
In what was called a fairy-tale ending, Taylor Swift took the field at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas to congratulate and celebrate boyfriend and star tight end, Travis Kelce’s big win with kisses and an affection hug. Swift has been a big supporter of Kelce throughout the Chiefs’ journey.
Postscript: Halftime Show headlined by R&B legend Usher, Alicia Keys, Reba McEntire, Post Malone and others.
