Next Sunday, February 9, the President of the United States, Donald Trump, will attend the Super Bowl in New Orleans. Trump will be present at the most anticipated sports event of the year, where the Kansas City Chiefs will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles in a final that promises a lot of excitement.
The confirmation of Trump's attendance at Super Bowl LIX was made through a White House official, who explained that the president has planned the trip to enjoy the event, although no further details about his agenda in the city were provided. It will be the first time that the president attends the Super Bowl in an official capacity, an event that traditionally attracts figures from the political, business, and sports worlds.
Trump, a sports enthusiast, also plans to participate in an exclusive interview with Bret Baier from Fox News, which will be recorded in Florida before the game starts, and will be part of the special programming leading up to the Super Bowl. While not all presidents have followed this tradition, both Trump and his successor, Joe Biden, had different approaches regarding pre-game interviews.
President Trump, born in New York and now a resident of Florida, has not yet revealed which team he will support during the final, but his stance has already been hinted at when he congratulated the Chiefs after their victory in the AFC Championship. On his social media, Trump praised the team, its coach, and the quarterback, and expressed his support for the Buffalo Bills for their outstanding season.
Despite the recent controversies surrounding the president, especially regarding immigration issues, it is unknown how he will be received by fans in New Orleans, a multi-ethnic city with a strong attraction for international tourism. However, Super Bowl 2025 promises to not only be a great sports party but also a historic occasion with the presence of President Trump at the venue.
