Mail Sport says a mix of Donald Trump and Taylor Swift, a shock win for the Philadelphia Eagles and a controversial half-time show led to a mammoth night of action.
According to Mail Sport it covered every angle in print, online and on video generating over 100 million views from across the world.
The publisher says The Super Bowl was again MailOnline’s biggest day for US sports traffic ever, having held the record in 2023 and 2024.
Coverage gained 3.6 million page views – exceeding last year’s figures by one million – with nearly 10.5 million page views globally over Super Bowl weekend, the publisher continued.
Three dedicated reporters were stationed in New Orleans all week, interviewing the players and big names from Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes to Olivia Dunne and Paige Spiranac.
There were also exclusive stories across a variety of different areas, from straight sports articles, like the scrutiny of Tom Brady, to investigative crime, such as the Super Bowl reporter being led to his death.
The publisher says a massive social media audience tuned in, with nearly 92 million clicks across TikTok, Facebook, X and YouTube Shorts.
DailyMail.com’s Sports Editor Ben Nagle said: “The remarkable success of Super Bowl night is testament to the incredible dedication of the team both on the ground in New Orleans, and in the New York and LA offices.
"It is a culmination of months of detailed planning, which – ultimately – was executed to perfection on a crazy night of action on and off the field.
“After breaking records in both 2023 and 2024, I am so proud that we managed to go where the Chiefs couldn’t, securing an historic three-peat.”
