The whole of America exploded when last night’s live TV show suddenly turned into a real “earthquake”. Veteran host Whoopi Goldberg had just finished speaking when Patrick Mahomes – the bright star of the NFL – suddenly launched a short answer that was like a knife stabbing straight into the air of the studio.
The audience on the spot held their breath, while millions of people watching on the screen seemed unable to believe what had just happened. A moment of suffocating silence followed, while Goldberg – who is famous for being sharp – was so confused that he could not say another word.
Immediately, social networks exploded with a series of status lines: “Mahomes just changed TV history with just one sentence”, “Never seen Whoopi so stiff!”. The name Patrick Mahomes climbed straight to the top of trending, surpassing even the hottest topics.
What was most intriguing was the weight of that statement – not long-winded, not flowery, but enough to collapse all previous dialogue. Fans affirmed: “This is not just football, this is a moment that defines a legend.”
No one knows where the behind-the-scenes story after this TV explosion will go, but one thing is for sure: Patrick Mahomes has written another shocking page in the history of showbiz and American sports.
