Super Bowl viewership reaches record high since moon landing

Super Bowl LVI had a record-breaking viewership of 123.4 million.

123.4 million viewers tuned in to watch the Super Bowl, making it the most-watched program since the moon landing. The game, which featured the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers, marked a historic moment as it was the only Super Bowl to ever go into overtime. However, there appeared to be some confusion among the players regarding the new overtime rules.

The previous record for the most-watched program was set just last year with 115 million viewers. The fact that this year's Super Bowl surpassed that number by 8.4 million viewers is a testament to the immense popularity of football in the United States.
