Chapter 901 Unique
The ratings of the 2018 Super Bowl were disappointing due to the sluggish performance of the Los Angeles Rams.
The ratings were 44.9 and the number of viewers was 98 million. Both data set a ten-year low.
More than one professional media stated that the extremely high expectations before the game fell to the bottom after the unsatisfactory performance in the first quarter, resulting in the loss of the audience, and they were never able to turn the tide later; while the Los Angeles area had high hopes, but because of the poor team The performance was completely disappointing and far below expectations. It did not have the explosive ratings that the cities where the Super Bowl participating teams should have.
At the end of the day, the Los Angeles Rams are the original sin.
According to statistics, New York, Buffalo, New Orleans, and Indianapolis lead the North American region in ratings - all thanks to the New England Patriots' hatred, which allows the Kansas City Chiefs to win unlimited support.
Of course, Kansas City hit a new all-time high --
The ratings were 71.7%.
The ratings data are a full 27 percentage points higher than the national average. In other words, in Kansas City, more than 70% of people aged 18 to 49 watched the Super Bowl.
The appeal is evident.
It is worth mentioning that the moment when the Magic Red Band appears on the stage during the halftime show, logically speaking, this should be the moment when the ratings explode. Even if they are not interested in the Super Bowl, the melon-eaters will watch the halftime show to avoid I lagged behind the hot topics on social networks - just like the Spring Festival Gala, but I never expected that the moment that broke my eyes would appear.
The ratings and number of viewers fell instead of rising, and the popularity of discussions plummeted across the board.
incredible!
So, where did the most watched moment of the entire game occur?
The answer is the moment when Levi gave his acceptance speech at the award ceremony.
The ratings soared to 49.7, and the number of viewers also skyrocketed to more than 120 million, setting a new historical record in an incredible manner.
Amid boos and cheers, Levi once again received the Vince Lombardi Trophy.
Originally, having already experienced it once last year, Levi thought that he should be familiar with it and feel a little calmer, but he did not expect that his heart was still beating wildly. The moment his hands touched the trophy, an indescribable happiness and excitement quietly burned. Get up——
It’s different, but it’s still different after all.
Every journey, every challenge, the ups and downs and scenery experienced along the way are different, and so are the mentality and feelings.
Feeling the weight of the trophy carefully, thousands of words are swirling on the tip of your tongue.
But in the end, what stayed in Levi's mind was still Anne Gallas.
The naughty girl who played peek-a-boo and pranked everyone in the hospital. The stubborn girl who came to the parking lot after the Gillette Stadium incident and sang "You'll Never Walk Alone." I hope you forget me” sunshine girl.
She faced a losing battle, but she still emerged victorious.
The whole audience was watching, waiting patiently, full of expectation and excitement, and then saw Levi taking a small step forward and standing in front of the microphone.
Open your mouth and sing——
Not a speech, but a song.
The whole audience was completely stunned.
However, Levi didn't, Levi knew exactly what he was doing.
He still sang stubbornly and firmly, and those complicated and turbulent moods could only be fully expressed through such a melody.
“When you walk through the storm, hold your head high and don’t be afraid of the dark.”
Every word, from the heart.
With a sudden blow, it hit Jenna so hard that she didn't even have time to defend or react. The tears had already broken through the restraints, completely bursting the dam, and she stood there surrendering -
Sorry, Annie. Mom promised you that you would no longer be immersed in memories and no longer tied to the ankles by the past; but...but just this time, the last time. Immediately, Jenna realized that Levi's acceptance speech was dedicated to Anne.
Her Anne, although no longer alive, continues her life in another way. She will accompany the Kansas chief and Levi to fight all the way.
She won't walk alone.
Jenna burst into tears.
“At the end of the storm there is a golden sky and the sweet song of the lark.”
It's not just Jenna.
Thalia also understood instantly, and quietly and deeply stared at the man on the TV screen.
He kept smiling, his eyes bright, and his messy short hair showed that he had just experienced a difficult game; but he still sang loudly and calmly, injecting all the turbulence and surging into the melody.
When people's eyes were all on that championship trophy and countless historical records, he was the only one who still remembered that girl.
A girl who is insignificant but as important as a mountain.
Thalia's eyes flashed with light tears, and she no longer cared about other people's gazes. She joined Levi and sang loudly together.
She believed that Levi would never walk alone.
Thalia is not alone.
Slowly, fans inside and outside the Mercedes-Benz Dome began to understand.
Felix was the first to raise his chin high, followed Levi's footsteps, and sang to his heart's content. Even though his eyes were filled with tears and his voice was trembling uncontrollably, he never wavered.
One after another, the songs gathered together.
Kansas City Chiefs fans, Atlanta Falcons fans, and millions of other fans all watched this scene and were shocked.
There is no doubt that this is a unique scene and one that will go down in history.
“Go forward, through the strong wind; go forward, through the heavy rain.
Perhaps, the dream will eventually be disappointed.
Go ahead, go ahead! With hope, you will never walk alone. "
The singing, neat and passionate, magnificent and passionate, swirled and stirred under the Atlanta night sky, firmly uniting the hearts of all fans.
At this time, the Los Angeles Rams fans who refused to stay and continue to hurt their hearts and left the game early could not help but stop and listen to the singing surrounding them from all directions.
For a moment, I was stunned——
If, just assuming, if they are willing to accompany the team to fight to the end, if they are willing to grow with the team in both victory and defeat, if they are willing to be part of the team and experience the ups and downs side by side, will the ending of tonight's Super Bowl be Will it be different?
Since the Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers returned to the City of Angels, this city, which has never lacked entertainment activities, has always refused to be enthusiastic. Until this year, the Los Angeles Rams had a winning streak, and "victory fans" flocked to the city. Eager to witness the Super Bowl winning moment together.
However, a little setback, a little obstacle, made these victorious fans turn around without hesitation, like a piece of loose sand.
After all, they have plenty of options outside of the Los Angeles Rams.
However, competitive sports should not be like this. Even the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Dodgers have also experienced peaks, faced troughs, and encountered setbacks to regain their strength. The fans unswervingly follow the team all the way forward. Work together to overcome difficulties. Only in this way can victory stir people's hearts.
So, did they do something wrong?
