On February 8th, 2026, Levi’s Stadium hosted the 60th annual Super Bowl, featuring the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. After ten years, the thrilling game of football returned to San Francisco, transforming the downtown area into the place to be and spreading excitement throughout the entire Bay Area, as visitors from all over the world came to experience the energy of the Super Bowl.

As the game began, the Seahawks quickly took control with a strong defensive performance that kept the Patriots under pressure. Seattle opened the scoring with a 33‑yard field goal by kicker Jason Myers, making it 3–0. Myers continued his perfect night by adding 39‑yard and 41‑yard field goals, giving Seattle a 9–0 lead at halftime.

The Seattle Seahawks dominated every quarter of Super Bowl LX.

Once halftime hit, America was entertained by Bad Bunny’s halftime show. The performance was filled with many surprises, like Lady Gaga singing “Die With a Smile”, Ricky Martin performing “Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawaii”, and many other little Easter eggs. Bad Bunny made the show a celebration of Latino culture, even featuring an actual wedding during one of his songs. Later, Bad Bunny handed his Grammy to a young boy to represent the new generation. To end his performance, he listed all the Latin-American countries, while exiting to his song “DtMF”.

Seattle opened the second half with a 41-yard field goal by Jason Myers in the third quarter, taking a 12–0 lead. Early in the fourth, Sam Darnold connected with A.J. Barner for a 16-yard touchdown, followed by Myers’ extra point, making it 19–0. The Patriots quickly answered as Drake Maye threw a 35-yard touchdown to Mack Hollins, with Andy Borregales’ kick bringing it to 19–7.

Seattle added another 26 yard field goal from Myers before Uchenna Nwosu returned an interception 45 yards for a touchdown, extending the lead to 29–7. New England scored one more time when Maye found Rhamondre Stevenson for a 7-yard touchdown, but their two-point conversion failed, leaving the final score 29–13 in favor of Seattle.

Seahawks running back, Kenneth Walker III, was named Super Bowl MVP, thanks to a standout performance that powered Seattle’s ground game and helped sustain key drives throughout the night.

Overall, Super Bowl LX showcased Seattle’s strong defense and disciplined offense, and Patriot’s ineffective defense, while Bad Bunny’s halftime show provided one of the most memorable performances in Super Bowl history. The combination of athletic excellence and cultural celebration made this championship a night to remember.
