"The last time the Patriots won the Super Bowl was Feb. 3, 2019 - a date that now feels like eons ago. This was a year before the first COVID-19 case was reported in Massachusetts, two years into President Donald Trump's first term, and back when Marty Walsh was still Boston's mayor. Cultural touchstones that now feel ubiquitous, from "Avengers: Endgame" to "Parasite," had't even hit theaters yet."
"And for Boston, it was a true high point. The Patriots capped the era with a 13-3 Super Bowl win over the Rams, the Red Sox were fresh off a World Series title just months earlier, Elizabeth Warren launched her presidential campaign, and Governor Charlie Baker won re-election. Take a quick visual trip down memory lane - a look back at some of the moments and events happening around the time when the Patriots earned their last Super Bowl ring."
The Patriots won Super Bowl LIII on Feb. 3, 2019, defeating the Rams 13-3. The victory occurred before the COVID-19 pandemic and while Donald Trump was two years into his first term. Marty Walsh served as Boston's mayor at the time. Major cultural releases such as "Avengers: Endgame" and "Parasite" had not yet reached theaters. The Red Sox had recently won a World Series, Elizabeth Warren launched a presidential campaign, and Charlie Baker won re-election as governor. The moment represented a notable high point in Boston's recent sports and civic life.
