Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl recently became an unexpected talking point during Super Bowl LX on Sunday, after broadcast cameras caught him reacting to himself on the stadium video board, with his wife Jordyn. The moment quickly spread online and prompted renewed fan chatter about whether Grohl and his band should land a future Super Bowl halftime slot.
Dave Grohl had a priceless reaction
During the game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, Parade reported that Grohl appeared surprised when his image flashed on the Jumbotron, then joined the celebration by downing a beer from his seat in the crowd.
The article notes that the clip sparked immediate comments across social media, with multiple fans calling for Foo Fighters to headline next year’s halftime show and others arguing the band should have been booked this time around.
Grohl’s appearance also stood out because he is best known as the former drummer of Nirvana and the longtime leader of Foo Fighters, making his brief on-camera reaction a crossover moment for both sports and rock audiences.
Grohl has remained a high-profile figure outside of touring, and his public appearances have continued to draw attention, including when he was photographed with Jimmy Kimmel in a separate recent entertainment moment.
Super Bowl LX’s halftime show was headlined by Bad Bunny, with guest appearances referenced in the same report. While the NFL has not announced next year’s performer, the online response to Grohl’s cameo shows how quickly a single stadium cutaway can reignite major-event booking debates.
