Astronaut Scott Kelly watched the Super Bowl live with his own eyes, and didn’t drop a dime on tickets? How you may ask?
Kelly, a Houston Texans fan, is a NASA Astronaut currently living in the International Space Station in space. Receiving a polite day off from his duties, the man is spending a year in space after all, was able to sit back, relax, and watch the big game from miles in the sky.
Hosted #SuperBowl party on @space_station, but no one showed up. I would have served nachos! #YearInSpace pic.twitter.com/Vpqxp1wDuf

With the satellite ISS traveling at a whopping 17,500 miles per hour, Kelly only got a short glimpse at the game from above, but was able to watch it on a television. This man can get TV up in space and people can’t get wifi in there own house.
Got to see the #SuperBowl in person after all! But at 17,500MPH, it didn't last long. #YearInSpace pic.twitter.com/O0DygOdX8i
