What contributed to the Patriots' downfall was a fumble that happened with two minutes left in the fourth quarter, marking the first turn over for the team. Inevitably, social media capitalized on the moment, turning a picture of a distraught Tom Brady sitting on the field into a meme.

A part of this year's Super Bowl was a halftime performance from Justin Timberlake, which also included a tribute to Prince.
"Minneapolis, this one's for you," Timberlake said as he went into a cover of Prince's "I Would Die 4 U." As Timberlake played the song on a piano, a large sheet with videos of Prince performing were shown, with the entire U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis bathed in purple in honor of the late artist.
