Super Bowl as a perfect dating option
Football fans of all ages want to love and be loved, and while it seems easier for younger people, older folks may be successful as well by means of a decent senior dating site or potential encounters at events such as the Super Bowl. To state that these sporting encounters are popular would be a considerable understatement. Super Bowl 2020 featured the Kansas City Chiefs (who had won once, in 1970) facing the San Francisco 49ers, the first team to win this coveted trophy five times, including an amazing four occasions during the 1980s.
In 202, the Chiefs staged a thrilling final quarter comeback to become second-time champions. But the most amazing aspect of this encounter was the fact it drew a TV audience of over 99.9 million viewers in the USA.
Super Bowl 2021 (Super Bowl LV, or the 55th game of this tournament) will take place at the Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, Florida, home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, on February 7th. While this will undoubtedly be a fabulous event, representing a golden opportunity for sports fan of all ages to socialize, getting to know new friends (and possibly even a love interest), a note of caution cannot be over-emphasized – Super Bowl 2021 will be the first-ever played against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This will mean restrictions on the normal 65,600-capacity stadium for obvious reasons. Football authorities have also stated there may be a need to push the game back to the 28th of the month or, in a worst-case scenario, cancel it completely (especially if the COVID-19 situation delays the 2020 season).
The precautions otherwise being enforced in other areas of life will be especially stringent surrounding a football match capable of generating such widespread interest. There will be social distancing, and if you are intending to go along to flirt with potential partners, you’ll need to exercise due diligence. Avoid close contact with strangers, even if you are both masked up. It would be a better idea to have minimal chat and then exchange contact details.
An even better idea would be to carry on a virtual connection with a fellow Super Bowl fan by watching the game live on TV, alongside a computer monitor or smartphone screen, so you could touch base while your heroes are chasing after touchdowns. If you are in the habit of reaching out to prospective partners via a dating site, then you’ll already be used to breaking the ice by exchanging regular messages across the secure communication platform.
Personal life of the last three Super Bowl MVPs
Patrick Mahomes
Born in Whitehouse in Texas in 1995, Patrick Mahomes joined Kansas City Chiefs in 2017 and has been playing Quarterback with the Missouri team ever since. In 2020 he signed a 10-year contract extension worth a mind-boggling $500 million, the largest in sporting history. In September 2020 he proposed to his high school sweetheart, Brittany Matthews, who spent a short while playing professional soccer with UMF Afturelding, from Iceland. Later that month they announced they were expecting their first child.
Julian Edelman
Hailing from Redwood City in California, 34-year-old Edelman is a Wide Receiver, who has been with New England Patriots, based in Greater Boston, for his whole professional career. His personal life has been a little more fractious than Mahomes. From 2016 to 2017 he was enjoying an off-and-on relationship with Adriana Lima, a Brazilian model although a paternity test revealed he was the father to a daughter by Swedish model Ella Rose. He claimed fatherhood has changed him. According to recent reports in the media, he is now seeing another Brazilian model, Daiane Sodré.
Nick Foles
