Top Super Bowl Memes and Mockery to Cure Monday Blues
Super Bowl LVIII: Memorable Moments and Controversies
Super Bowl LVIII concluded on Sunday with a nail-biter overtime that kept everyone on the edge of their seats, but it was the game’s slow start that gave viewers the time to share the humorous takes we all need to cure that Monday morning hangover.
You may have gone to bed on Sunday night thinking the Kansas City Chiefs beat out the San Francisco 49ers to win the NFL championship game, but Georgia discovered a stash of secret ballots overnight, making Stacey Abrams the true victor of the Super Bowl.
Perhaps the most memeable moment from the matchup was when Pfizer’s favorite Kelce brother yelled at and pushed his elderly coach on live TV. In a post-game interview, Andy Reid laughed off Kelce’s benchable behavior, but keyboard warriors on X were way ahead of him.
Even Democrat Sen. Chris Murphy tried to use the exchange to go after conservatives for criticizing his “border never closes” bill. He was immediately roasted in the replies by Americans who noted his allegiance is clearly not to border security for the U.S. but border security for Ukraine.
Kelce wasn’t the only person mocked by the internet. His girlfriend, Taylor Swift, also caught some heat over her hypocritical use of private jets and her penchant for breakup songs.
If you watched the Super Bowl for the snacks, the ads, and the halftime performance instead of the football, you’ll be pleased to find that Usher’s nostalgic, sweat-inducing roller skating routine caught the eyes of several online humorists.
Finally, on a more sad but true note, a Chinese Communist Party-linked company known for slave labor and using spyware to steal Americans’ personal information aired not one, not two, but three ads for its cheap products during the massive TV event.
The company’s aggressive marketing campaign sparked a slew of self-deprecating realizations from viewers who have fallen prey to Temu’s scam.

How did Usher’s roller skating performance during the halftime show contribute to the buzz surrounding Super Bowl LVIII?
Rampage was one of the most talked-about moments of the night. The R&B singer took to the stage during the halftime show, gliding effortlessly on roller skates and dazzling the audience with his smooth moves. Social media was flooded with gifs and videos of Usher’s roller skating skills, with many fans reminiscing about their own roller skating days.
But not everyone was impressed with Usher’s performance. Some viewers criticized the halftime show for lacking energy and excitement, claiming that it paled in comparison to previous years. Others questioned the relevance of roller skating to the overall theme of the show, suggesting that it was a bizarre choice for a football game.
Controversy also arose during the game itself, with several questionable calls by the referees causing uproar among fans. One particularly contentious moment occurred in the fourth quarter, when the Chiefs’ star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, was hit with a helmet-to-helmet tackle that went uncalled. Many fans and analysts argued that the hit should have resulted in a penalty, and possibly even an ejection, but the referees deemed it a legal play.
Another controversial moment came in the final minutes of the game, when the 49ers attempted a last-ditch comeback. With seconds left on the clock, the 49ers quarterback launched a desperation pass towards the end zone, only for it to be intercepted by a Chiefs defender. However, replays showed that the defender had stepped out of bounds before making the interception, raising questions about the validity of the play and whether the 49ers should have been given another opportunity to score.
Despite the controversies, the Super Bowl LVIII will go down in history as an unforgettable game. From Usher’s roller skating extravaganza to the nail-biting overtime finish, the game was packed with memorable moments that had fans on the edge of their seats. And while controversies and debates may continue to surround the game, one thing is for certain: Super Bowl LVIII will be a topic of conversation for years to come.
