Multiple people ran out onto the field during the Super Bowl during a third-down completion by Patrick Mahomes to Mecole Hardman. The men were immediately tackled and detained by security at Allegiant Stadium.
CBS commentators Jim Nantz and Tony Romo mentioned the field invaders on the broadcast before remembering they should not talk about it. Both men did not enter the field shirtless, but decided to rip off their shirts while being chased by security. On the next play, Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker kicked a 57-yard field goal.

The unidentified field invaders are not the first to temporarily stop the Super Bowl by entering the field of play. In fact, two previous Kansas City Super Bowl appearances have had people come from the stands onto the field during the game.
Yuri Andrade was charged with trespassing after attempting to streak during the Super Bowl in 2021, when the Chiefs lost to Tom Brady and the Buccaneers. During the last 49ers-Chiefs Super Bowl in 2020, model Kelly Kay was detained for also trying to streak. Based on their clothing, the pitch invaders at Allegiant Stadium do not look to be protesting or bringing awareness to any particular cause.
