Why Bad Bunny Wore No. 64 on His Jersey During Super Bowl Halftime Show

Bad Bunny honored his uncle with a No. 64 jersey and held a vintage NFL football inscribed 'Together we are American' during the halftime show, highlighting family and cultural roots.

  • On Sunday, February 8, Bad Bunny headlined the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show at Levi's Stadium, Santa Clara, wearing a cream-white jersey reading `OCASIO` with No. 64.
  • He chose 64 to honor his late Uncle Cutito, his mother’s brother and a lifelong San Francisco 49ers fan who died two years ago and inspired Bad Bunny's NFL interest.
  • The set opened with `Tití Me Preguntó` in a sugarcane-field staging, included a real wedding and cameos from Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, Pedro Pascal, Cardi B and Alix Earle.
  • Afterwards, Bad Bunny hugged NFL commissioner Roger Goodell amid pre-show backlash over his Spanish lyrics, while Katy Perry and others showed support for the cultural tribute.
  • Earlier, he announced the gig in September 2025 and, after winning Album of the Year last week, quipped `four months` while recalling his dream of taking his uncle to a Super Bowl.
