As is the case for most years, the Super Bowl became the most-watched TV event of the year. There were a total of 102 million people tuning in (both through TV and digital) to watch the NFL's premier matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, according to FOX.

With approximately, 329.5 million people living in America, the viewing numbers mean that over two-thirds of Americans weren't watching the biggest football game of the year.

And while the Super Bowl still dominated viewing numbers for the past year, the Super Bowl LIV matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers ranked as just the 10th highest-viewed Super Bowl in the game history that goes all the way back to 1967.

The 10th highest viewed Super Bowl in history seems impressive but also consider that Super Bowl LIV had the second-lowest viewership numbers of the past decade beating out only Super Bowl LIII in 2019.

Super Bowl XLIX in 2015 remains the most-watched Super Bowl in history as the game between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks was viewed by 114.4 million people on NBC.

While the Super Bowl dominates the American TV market, it still pales in comparison to global events such as the 2012 London Summer Olympics which reeled in an estimated 3.6 billion viewers worldwide.

The game as a whole, was still a quality game as the Kansas City Chiefs led by 2018 NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes, scored 21 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to secure a 31-20 win.
