As the hype of the NFL Super Bowl LVIII finally concludes with the Kansas City Chiefs taking home the victory and the trophy, everyone has been on their smartphones sharing their views and experiences witnessing the biggest event of the year in US sporting history. But it seems like despite all the cheers the Chiefs received, some skeptical viewers have smelled a conspiracy.
As many had predicted earlier, there was a high chance of the Chiefs taking home the trophy, and their performance as a team this Sunday led them to that victory. But this all seems a bit too convenient to some, who have alleged that all of this was nothing more than a scripted event to make the winning team and Taylor Swift look good to garner attention.
Sports Fans Claim That NFL Super Bowl LVIII Was Completely Scripted To Attract More Viewers
Everyone was either glued to their seats in front of their screens, or they were dead silent when the Kansas City Chiefs took their final charge across the line facing the San Francisco 49ers. And with Mecole Hardman making the game-winning touchdown, the Chiefs took home the trophy and the title of Super Bowl LVIII winners this year. And as expected by many, Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes were the stars of the night yet again.
While their battle for the title was a hard-fought one, without a doubt, some individuals from the general public as well as hardcore football fans have viewed the entire event and have alleged that the game was scripted all the way. They claim that this was a set-up from the beginning to practically hand over the trophy to the Chiefs at the grandest stage of them all.
NFL is basically the WWE now.
All scripted. Fixed. They pick who they want to win.
It’s all for entertainment & honestly I don’t even know why I watch & care so much.
It’s all fake.

The reason why they believe that the event was rigged is because of the appearance of Taylor Swift in the mix. Since she has been seen frequenting the Chiefs’ games to support her boyfriend Kelce, the entire focus of the NFL has been to give her as much exposure as possible to attract more eyeballs. Thus, with the hype train having so much steam surrounding Kelce and Swift, it’s being assumed that this might be the biggest reason for the win of the Chiefs.

As the team members of the Kansas City Chiefs hoist the trophy high above their heads, the allegations just keep on being piled on top of each other by the growing number of fan allegations of the match being scripted.

While we may not know what the truth behind the game is or will be in the future, we can only hope that the game we all love and cherish isn’t just brought down to mere entertainment.
