Super Bowl LVIII, aka Super Bowl 2024, kicks off this Sunday. It’s the culmination of another NFL season and one of the biggest sporting events of the year. Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and the Kansas City Chiefs have all fought their way back to the big game after taking home the Lombardi Trophy last year. A win would make the Chiefs the first repeat champions since Tom Brady and the Patriots in 2003 and 2004.
Their opponent is the San Francisco 49ers, a super-team stacked with All-Pro players like Christian McCaffery, Deebo Samuels, and Nick Bosa. They’ve been flirting with a Super Bowl win for a decade, having numerous deep playoff runs, including losing the Super Bowl in 2013 and 2020.

FAQs
