As the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles square off on the gridiron in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, Feb. 9, the 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump, intends to make it a historic occasion for the NFL and the USA off of the field.
NBC reports that Trump is expected to attend Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, Louisiana. This may come as a surprise, but Trump's decision to attend the game means he will become the first sitting President to attend the Super Bowl.
Vice Presidents have attended the game before, including Trump's former Vice President Mike Pence, who attended Super Bowl LI between the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons. However, a sitting US President has never attended the game.
It shouldn't be surprising that Trump is interested in attending Super Bowl LIX. During his presidential campaign, he attended the Penn State vs. Ohio State game. The Buckeyes fended off the Nittany Lions in that one. Trump has long purported to be a football fan.
Trump has also commented on Patrick Mahomes and his family before. He also congratulated the Chiefs after their AFC Championship Game win over the Buffalo Bills, but he didn't do the same for the Philadelphia Eagles after their NFC Championship Game win over the Washington Commanders. It wouldn't be the slightest bit shocking if he winds up rooting for Kansas City.
The Chiefs aim to make history in the game by potentially becoming the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowl titles. Maybe it's a good omen for the team that another unprecedented piece of history will be made before the game even kicks off.
