The previous record was 123 million, set last year. The final numbers should be solidified today.
What do we think happened here? Was Chiefs fatigue not real? Or did the inclusion of the Eagles push viewership over the top? Was it both? Possibly. More from Joe Reedy at the AP:
The game was televised by Fox, Fox Deportes and Telemundo and streamed on Tubi as well as the NFL’s digital platforms.
Fox’s projections on Monday included Nielsen’s early numbers and streaming data from Tubi and the NFL. Updated and more complete numbers were expected on Tuesday.
It would be the second straight year the Super Bowl has reached a record audience. The Chiefs’ 25-22 overtime victory over San Francisco last year averaged 123.7 million on CBS, Nickelodeon, Univision and streaming platforms.
According to Fox, the audience peaked at 135.7 million in the second quarter.
Everybody likes us, we care.
