A Super Bowl Sunday meltdown over Bad Bunny turned into a viral win for a Florida bar that refused to cave to an entitled customer armed with a camera and an accusation. At Zoo Sports Club in St. Petersburg, Florida, TVs were rolling during halftime—but not with what one furious patron demanded.

The customer immediately made it clear this wasn’t just about football. “I came here for the halftime show. The whole experience,”...

"You can't say the f-word on live TV...Had he said these lyrics – and all of the other disgusting and pornographic filth in English on live TV, the broadcast would have been pulled down and the fines would have been enormous."

The Daily Wire’s own Megan Basham shared screenshots of some of Bad Bunny’s lyrics in an X post, most of which were graphic depictions of body parts, sex acts, drug use, and drug use during sex acts. “These are the most obscene lyrics ever to be performed at a Super Bowl half time.

Americans were forced to sit through one of their biggest cultural events of the year in a language that is not theirs, surrounded by symbols of other, foreign places. The Super Bowl is supposed to be one of the cultural cornerstones in American life that still belongs to Americans. There are only a handful of days each year when most of the country pauses and gathers around the same screen to participate in something recognizably ours. It’s a shared experience — rooted in common language and culture and tradition. Which is why the Super Bowl half time show this year...
