Super Bowl Memes & Jokes That Captured The Best
The most-watched television event in the United States arrived on Sunday evening: the Super Bowl.Millions upon millions of Americans got together with family and friends to eat pizza and chicken wings, make bets, tune in for the funniest or most controversial commercials, and watch Lady Gaga’s halftime show performance. Oh,and some people also wanted to see the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons compete for a trophy. With so many people watching one event, Super Bowl memes and jokes inevitably flooded the internet.
The hashtags #SuperBowl and #Falcons, as well as the terms “Gaga” and “Patriots,” had each been tweeted over half a million times before the game had even started. President Trump stirred the pot during an interview with Bill O’ Reilly preceding the pregame by predicting that the Patriots would beat their rivals by eight points. Speculation of what to expect from Lady Gaga’s performance — with conservatives like Tomi Lahren begging her to keep it politics-free and Katy Perry/Gaga fans ready to keep the artists’ “feud” alive —was rife.
There was no shortage of material for everyone ready to keep up with the night’s action on Twitter and Facebook. And, sure enough, the internet did not disappoint.
