Brett Favre knows what it’s like to play on the sport’s biggest stage and has won a championship himself, but he recently weighed in on Super Bowl LX and how he plans to avoid watching the halftime show featuring Bad Bunny, revealing instead that he will be tuning into a program with a more traditionally American music style.

Favre clearly laid out his plans for the Super Bowl LX halftime show in a post on X (@brettfavre). “Not familiar with Bad Bunny so dont know if his music is good or bad. I’m just going to watch what I know Lee Brice, Kid Rock All-American Show.”

Favre’s post on X generated 768,000 views and more than 1,300 replies, with reactions split both in support of and against the comments from the Super Bowl XXXI champion. Favre also shared a photo from his championship run with the Green Bay Packers alongside teammate Reggie White.

“You’re not alone — I saw a story earlier where the players were asked about their favorite Bad Bunny song and no one seemed to be able to name a BB song, let alone have a favorite,” wrote Beachykeen67 on X (@beachykeen67).

Others reminded Favre that Bad Bunny is far more widely known than he is. “You have 450K followers here. Bad Bunny has 49.8 million followers on Instagram. So apparently a lot more people know who he is than know who you are,” wrote Joel on X (@jpostman).

“This may be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t understand why in the biggest game of the year we don’t have a traditional halftime show where the panel can discuss the biggest game of the year… instead we parade around pop singers that 90% of football fans don’t care about,” wrote Charlietweets (@whoaitscharlie).
