The Super Bowl was so close and unpredictable that it reminded a lot of viewers of another surprising outcome that occurred recently — election night.
As the New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons went head to head in Houston during overtime Sunday night, people couldn’t help but notice that it made them think of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.
This is how I felt on election night. #SuperBowl
