Donald Trump is planning to attend the Super Bowl following his return to office this year and will be at the Caesars Super Dome in New Orleans to take in the big game on Sunday.
The appearance will make him the first sitting United States president to go watch a Super Bowl in person, and he has been speaking about America’s most-watched event all week.
Trump took to his Truth Social social media platform this Friday to praise the starting quarterbacks, Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes, referring to the Eagles and Chiefs stars as “two great quarterbacks.”
The president also hailed Saquon Barkley as an “unbelievable running back” following his capture of the Offensive Player of the Year Award on Thursday night while branding Travis Kelce the “absolute best tight end in football ever.”
Trump is apparently not a fan of the NFL’s new kickoff rule, which he claims makes the game more dangerous.
“If they would only get rid of that really weird looking new Kickoff “deal, they would be doing everybody, especially the fans, a big favor,” he wrote.

Donald Trump Bringing Back Super Bowl Tradition
Donald Trump also confirmed that he will be participating in the traditional 3:00 PM interview before the game, which had been skipped by former President Joe Biden during his term
“There hasn’t been one in four years (Gee, I wonder why?),” he added.
Meanwhile, Mahomes and Kelce have both said that they are excited to play in front of a sitting president. It would be quite something if they could make history with him in attendance, but the Eagles will be keen on stopping that.
