World’s premier show critic delivers his verdict:
“Link”
Also, the NFL sucks too.
To say that the Bad Bunny Super Bowl appearance was a hit among the greater Latino community would be an understatement. I had cousins with zero interest in football texting me during and after halftime to tell me how much they felt represented by the show. A good chunk of my Dominincan cousins have married Puerto Ricans, Cubans, Chilenos, Nicaraguans, Salvaforeans, and Panamanians. The halftime show was a glorious celebration of all those cultures, and it was well done.
F**k ICE.
F**k MAGA,
@charontwo:
