Last night's Super Bowl was loaded with intense moments as the Kansas City Chiefs squeaked out yet another championship, beating the San Francisco 49ers in overtime.
And while we knew KC tight end Travis Kelce and his sweetheart Taylor Swift, who literally jetted from Tokyo overnight to support her man in Vegas, would be a major focus during the broadcast, we had no idea that another duo would be taking the internet by storm by the end of the night.
Kelce, who had a less than stellar first half, got "passionate" from the sidelines when a Chief's fumble halted what most likely would have been an easy six. Clearly frustrated that he was not in the game for that play, Kelce approached head coach Andy Reid, took him by the arm and shouted something.
And that "something" became social media's playground, with Kelce and Reid's interaction becoming an overnight internet sensation.
You can watch the moment below.
While spectators were split over whether or not Kelce's behavior was a display of love for the game or unmanageable frustration, both parties insisted after the game that there was no bad blood and that Reid was off-balance when an unknowing Kelce approached him.
Of course, Kelce joked that he was just telling Reid "how much I love him."
But Kelce also shared that he apologized and hugged Reid right after he realized he had thrown him off balance.
And that was the end of it. Or so they thought.
The internet took the moment and ran with it, creating hilarious memes that will hold us over for the next 206 days as we await the 2024 season.

The moment may be over, but the internet is forever!
