Rest assured we have trawled through the internet to select some of the best and funniest posts relating to Super Bowl 50.
Take a read and have a laugh on us.
Lloyd Christmas a San Diego fan?
Fans of the teams not playing off in Super Bowl 50 are already looking optimistically to 2017.
Despite Sportsbet installing The San Diego Chargers as $51 outsiders to win next year’s Super Bowl, a famous Jim Carrey meme shows the lowly Charger fans still have a sense of humour.
Peyton Manning better have his health insurance updated
Despite being considered one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time, Peyton Manning’s inability to secure multiple Super Bowl rings has been a constant source of ridicule for the man they call ‘The Sherriff’.
With healthcare such a big issue in the states this meme could not help but poke fun at both Peyton Manning and US president Barrack Obama.
Super Bowl ads more important than the game itself
Every year corporations spend millions of dollars to secure airtime to show their commercials throughout the NFL Super Bowl coverage.
Dos Equis’ most interesting man in the world campaign has become a worldwide sensation, and this meme utilises just what makes the ad so popular.
Some people watch the Super Bowl for the game, but there is a significant amount of people across the world that watch the coverage just for the ads.
This is for them.
Are you sure you have got the right Panthers?
When you are putting up graphics in the background of arguably the biggest sporting event of 2016, you would want to ensure that you get it exactly right.
Unfortunately for a Canadian TV station, they confused the mascot for Florida Panthers with the Carolina Panthers logo, causing serious embarrassment for the news program.
The Florida Panthers caught wind of their decision and elected to have a little fun with their silly error.
Broncos playing themselves?
What a blunder this could have been.
The battle between the Carolina Panthers and the Arizona Cardinals was one the more one-sided games in this year’s playoffs, but the team in charge of painting the endzones must not have been watching the game.
The Broncos logo was painted on both sides of the gridiron, leaving the team in charge who made the mistake scrambling to remove the paint to have the Panthers endzone painted in time for Sunday.
We are not sure how such a mistake could ever happen but we are glad they will be saved of the embarrassment of having this broadcast all around the world.
