Trump Bows Out of the Super Bowl LX: A Game Day Absence Sparks Buzz

Trump snubs the Super Bowl LX
US President Donald Trump announced he will not attend the Super Bowl LX final planned for February in California.
In an interview with the New York Post, republished by The Athletic, he said the venue is too far but he has great fans at the event who like him.
Trump said the absence is because pop star Bad Bunny and band Green Day will perform, and both are known for criticising his administration and ideas.
He added, "I'm against them. I think that's a terrible choice. All the duo does is spread hatred."
Trump had attended last year's Super Bowl between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.
Punchline 1: If avoiding the spotlight were a sport, Trump would be the MVP of the off-season.
Punchline 2: And the only thing hotter than the stadium lights might be the rumors about his calendar.
