Super Bowl Most Watched Event in US. Thanks, Tinfoil Hatters.

Former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy suggested Swift is a PSYOP planted to endorse Biden on the biggest stage in sports. Several grafters on the right shared that same wonky theory. ...

Further, the hypothesis that the NFL is rigged for the Chiefs also gained traction in recent weeks.

It wasn't just people on the fringes. I discussed with Will Cain on his Fox News Digital show Monday how influential people online have convinced their followers that the NFL rigs outcomes to benefit the Chiefs.

Nothing behooves a telecast more than hate-watching. A whole bunch of people hate-watched the Super Bowl this season because of the Chiefs, Taylor Swift, and the conspiracies. 

CBS appreciates the assist.

It was also a great matchup, and it turned into a great game in the second half, which held the audience through all but two seconds of a full 15-minute overtime period. There were cool narratives on both sides; Kelce-Swift and Mahomes' desire to prove he can win on the road for the Chiefs, and Brock Purdy's need to establish himself as a top-flight QB after going dead last in the draft for the 49ers. Also, Christian McCaffrey's desire to follow in his father's footsteps as a Super Bowl champ.
