Social Media Detectives Are Convinced The AFC Championship Game Is Already “Rigged” After NFL Uses Sketchy Chiefs-Themed Graphic To Announce Referee Assignment
Football fans already think the NFL is “rigging” the remaining NFL playoff games after social media detectives discovered something bizarre about the referee announcement for Super Bowl 59.
On Tuesday, the NFL announced that Ron Torbert will be the head referee for Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, Louisiana on Feb. 9. The matchup for the Super Bowl will be determined on Sunday, with the Philadelphia Eagles hosting the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Game followed by the Kansas City Chiefs-Buffalo Bills AFC title game tilt.
Amid all the accusations and complaints about the league fixing games for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, social media detectives noticed another detail that has fans freaking out.
That is, they noticed that the background on the graphic for the referee assignment in Super Bowl 59 is the color red:
“They really don’t help things when they make stuff look like this look like a Chiefs infographic lmaooo,” said another.
“At least this already has the Chiefs colors as to show which team the refs prefer,” a fan quipped.
