The New England Patriots and quarterback Tom Brady emerged victorious over the Seattle Seahawks, 28–24.
This was Brady’s fourth Super Bowl win.
Seattle's Filipino American wide receiver Doug Baldwin also grabbed headlines with controversial touchdown celebration. Officials flagged Baldwin with a 15-yard penalty.
Still, fans say this was an unforgettable game.
Fans from near and far, of all ages showed their loyalty to their teams, making sacrifices in their own lives to witness the biggest game in football.
"It was very expensive but I think it's well worth it. I am here for my Seahawks," said Lilia Ancheta-Pena.
A group of Filipino students came from Guam and said they missed school to support their team.
While others are lucky to get tickets at a fair price, another group of Filipinos decided to do a potluck and get together to watch the game.
"I'm a Seahawk fan but everybody here is actually Patriots," said Eddie Borromeo of Phoenix.
For Fil-Am teenagers from Sandra Day O’Connor High School Marching Band, it was a dream to be part of the halftime performance as back-up for Katy Perry.
"We held the orbs that lit-up during the halftime show that forms the Pepsi Logo and it was a bunch of fun and a cool experience just being close to all the celebrities," said Nathan Mansur.
With this big win New England becomes the sixth team in NFL history to win their fourth Super Bowl trophy.
