"Hunt framed her position through the legacy of her grandfather Lamar Hunt, one of the modern NFL's founding fathers who coined the Super Bowl name. She said the game was designed to be accessible to fans of all demographics. When my grandfather named the Super Bowl, he intended it to be something children and families of all ages could come together and watch, she said."
"She argued that the league has a responsibility to choose performers who reflect its long-standing identity. Football is becoming the world sport, but, at its heart, it's America's sport built around family, she said. The NFL honors women, the military, this country, celebrates communities. So I think that whoever they select going forward for the half-time show needs to reflect those values more closely."
Gracie Hunt endorsed Turning Point USA's plan to stage an alternative Super Bowl halftime show in response to the NFL's selection of Bad Bunny for Super Bowl LX. She praised Erika Kirk for creating a halftime show aimed at American families and expressed concern over Bad Bunny's criticism of Donald Trump and U.S. immigration enforcement. Hunt emphasized that children and young people need positive role models and framed her stance through her grandfather Lamar Hunt's legacy, stating the Super Bowl was intended as a family event accessible to all demographics. She argued that future halftime performers should reflect the league's traditional, family-centered values.
