During the fourth quarter of the 2026 Super Bowl, a shirtless, would-be streaker was apprehended by security after making it onto the field.

As reported by USA Today, a shirtless man who appeared to have writing on his back and chest jumped on the field from the Seattle Seahawks’ end zone and managed to bring the game to a brief halt. He managed to get some good distance, spreading his arms out at one point to show how thrilled he was to have made it this far. Eventually, security was able to converge on him, joined by New England Patriots receiver Kyle Williams, and he was apprehended in a tackle.

Another spectator attempted to run onto the field, but was tackled by security before they could get anywhere near as far as the first guy. The identity of the two attempted streakers remains unclear as of this writing, but they could face trespassing charges in connection with their efforts to disrupt the game.

The last time a would-be streaker made it onto the field during the Super Bowl was in 2021, during the face-off between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Kansas City Chiefs. Like the incident this year, the fan wasn’t nude but was apprehended in a dramatic tackle from the security team. As reported by the Tampa Bay Times in 2021, the man and a second individual pleaded no contest to trespassing charges and received one year of probation, including 100 hours of community service, $500 in fines, and were forced to write an apology letter to the NFL.

The Seattle Seahawks won Super Bowl LX in a 29-13 victory against the Patriots. While the game gave people plenty to talk about, Bad Bunny’s performance during the Halftime Show was the true standout for many. His electrifying performance featured special guests such as Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, while Cardi B and Pedro Pascal made brief cameo appearances. The show also featured a real couple getting married, and Bad Bunny ended his performance by reminding Americans that diversity is one of the greatest strengths of the nation.
