Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX Halftime Show Literally Made NYC Stop Flushing

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX halftime show didn’t just record the highest-ever viewership (134.5M), it also paused New York City itself. NYC Water data showed citywide water usage dropped to decade lows during his 13-minute set, before spiking immediately after. Officials estimated the surge equaled 761,719 toilets flushing at once, a rare example of a single cultural moment syncing an entire metropolis.
