Although there were some fans able to attend Super Bowl LV at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, the stadium was not even close to reaching capacity.

The stadium can hold up to over 65,000 people, so only a little over 1/3 of the stadium was full on Sunday nights matchup.

Andrade did have to face some jail time but his bail [...]

Last year we saw a red-on-red Super Bowl. This year, we thought we were going to see it again. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had the first pick to choose the uniform colors, and they decided on wearing white jerseys during Super Bowl LV. That means the Kansas City Chiefs will have to wear the exact same thing they wore last year (red jerseys and white pants) when they won Super Bowl LIV. Do uniform colors really matter? With NFL players superstitions - yes. Before Super Bowl LIV, there has been no Super Bowl where both teams have the dominant color of [...]

This past Monday (Feb. 1)  they played against the Atlanta Hawks, and although the Hawks made it an interesting game, the Lakers pushed through. That didn't sit well with a Hawks fan sitting courtside, and they got into an argument with James and eventually got kicked out of the game by the stadium's security. Laker's broadcaster Bill Macdonald even made a joke saying it looked like an episode from Desperate Housewives. After the game, James explained that the fight [...]
