The game followed a familiar script.
Bad Bunny’s halftime show was already polarizing, and Jake Paul’s comments only added fuel to the fire.
Paul’s ‘boycott’ call is a classic move from a social media influencer trying to stay relevant.
It’s not surprising to see Paul take a stance on this issue, given his outspoken views on ICE agents and American citizenship.
This one felt recognizable early, with both sides dug in and refusing to back down.
