12.2.23 (SBLVII - Chiefs v Eagles)

Josh and I had our first proper SB bash since 2019, and celebrated in style; we started with our own take on a tailgate party in the park, where we demolished assorted (Kansas) BBQ along with a twice-baked potato/cheese/bacon dish that I made - which got my vote for MVP.

Further treats and entertainment followed, including my kinder chocolate (Philly) cheesecake, which I instantly regretted pouring extra cream over! Unusually for us we had plenty of surplus left over, but there are positives - I'm looking forward to trying thrice-baked potato/cheese/bacon!

By the time the showpiece itself kicked off, the idea of running at all made me feel a bit nauseous, but it didn't stop me enjoying a thoroughly absorbing game. This was of course easier as a neutral spectator, but even more so given there was neither a Patriot nor a Brady in sight.

Despite being a neutral I was rooting for the Eagles, and even picked them to win beforehand (along with plenty more equally inaccurate predictions - see below). But I was not foolish enough to ever count KC out, and Philly couldn't quite land a decisive blow. Thus, in slightly New England-y fashion the Chiefs fought back to snatch it right at the end (assisted in part by a rather fortuitous holding call).

Hoy se llevó a cabo la 57ª edición del Súper Tazón, el mayor evento deportivo del año, evento en el que se enfrentaron las Philadelphia Eagles y los Kansas City Chiefs.

A todas luces pudimos visualizar que fue un partido interesante, repleto de emociones y para nada predecible, pues de un momento a otro el rumbo del juego cambió por completo, y en la recta final, una jugada marcó la diferencia.

El marcador final fue Eagles 35 y Chiefs 38, y la jugada del triunfo fue un gol de campo de 27 yardas ejecutado por pateador Harrison Butker, dándole la inevitable victoria a Kansas City a pesar del buen desempeño de las Eagles que resultó insuficiente.

El State Farm Stadium fue testigo de cómo los Kansas City Chiefs obtuvieron su tercer Lombardi en su historia, y Patrick Mahomes recibió el trofeo de Jugador Más Valioso. Un gane de último momento inolvidable.
