How Super Bowl LVI Got Memed

Super Bowl LVI took place in Los Angeles in mid-February 2022 and featured the NFC's Los Angeles Rams facing the AFC's Cincinnati Bengals. In a close game, the Rams edged out the Bengals 23-20. Outside of the game, the event had a widely praised halftime show featuring rappers Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, 50 Cent, Anderson Paak and Mary J. Blige. Notably, there were multiple cryptocurrency ads that caught the internet's attention.

Notable memes:

50 Cent Hanging Upside Down refers to rapper 50 Cent's hanging upside down while performing his song "In Da Club" during the halftime show at the Super Bowl LVI, which is a reference to the 2003 music video for the song. 50 Cent's position during the performance, combined with the fact that the rapper had to wait until rappers Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg finished their performance, spawned memes.

Coinbase Bouncing QR Code Super Bowl Commercial refers to a commercial played during Super Bowl LVI (56) in mid-February 2022 of a QR code bouncing around the television screen for over 20 seconds, mimicking the Bouncing DVD Logo. Viewers who scanned the QR code with their phones were able to set up a Coinbase account with $15 in free Bitcoin for new signups, though the curiosity of the advertisement resulted in the site crashing shortly after. The ad was widely discussed online and covered in the media following the Super Bowl.
