When he did, WOW, the whole place woke up from a game that, during the first half, had been one-sided. The music had everyone singing, dancing, and waving proudly their Puerto Rican flags. This, however, was not the first time a Puerto Rican or someone of Puerto Rican descent has performed the Super Bowl halftime show. Jennifer Lopez (2020) is of Puerto Rican descent, as is Bruno Mars, who headlined the 2014 show, and Ricky Martin, who even during this show had a spot. The show was equally amazing because the football field was filled with <em>palmeras<\/em> (palm trees), found throughout Puerto Rico, and the rich, beautiful, and colorful Latinx culture was on full display. The halftime showed how hardworking, integrated, and beautiful Puerto Rico and its people are. The restaurant even had an all-you-can-eat Puerto Rican buffet, a Puerto Rican food truck was right outside the doors, and t-shirts were made in memory of Bad Bunny and his historic, all-Spanish show.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13168 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-12-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-12-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-12.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a>Benito Bowl 2026 en Detroit, Michigan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Restaurante Salpic\u00f3n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Por la Dra.

El lugar estaba repleto de emoci\u00f3n, mientras &#8220;Bad Bunny,&#8221; Benito Antonio Mart\u00ednez Ocasio, ofrec\u00eda el espect\u00e1culo del medio tiempo. \u00a1Y qu\u00e9 espect\u00e1culo! Todo el lugar se anim\u00f3 despu\u00e9s de un partido que, durante la primera mitad, hab\u00eda sido bastante aburrido. La m\u00fasica hizo que todos cantaran, bailaran y ondearan con orgullo sus banderas puertorrique\u00f1as. Sin embargo, esta no era la primera vez que un puertorrique\u00f1o o alguien de ascendencia puertorrique\u00f1a actuaba en el espect\u00e1culo del medio tiempo del Super Bowl. Jennifer Lopez (2020) es de ascendencia puertorrique\u00f1a, al igual que Bruno Mars, quien encabez\u00f3 el espect\u00e1culo de 2014, y Ricky Martin, quien incluso tuvo una participaci\u00f3n en este mismo espect\u00e1culo. El espect\u00e1culo fue igualmente asombroso porque el campo de f\u00fatbol estaba lleno de palmeras, t\u00edpicas de Puerto Rico, y la rica, hermosa y colorida cultura latina se exhibi\u00f3 en todo su esplendor. El espect\u00e1culo del medio tiempo demostr\u00f3 lo trabajadora, integrada y hermosa que es Puerto Rico y su gente. El restaurante incluso ofrec\u00eda un buf\u00e9 puertorrique\u00f1o de todo lo que puedas comer, hab\u00eda un cami\u00f3n de comida puertorrique\u00f1a justo afuera y se vend\u00edan camisetas conmemorativas de Bad Bunny y su hist\u00f3rico espect\u00e1culo completamente en espa\u00f1ol.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-8.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13167\" src=\"http:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-8-300x164.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-8-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/laprensanewspaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Benito-Bowl-2026-8.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Restaurante Salpic\u00f3n \u00a0By Dr. Linda Alvarado-Arce There was no better place to watch Super Bowl LVII (February 8, 2026) than in the heart of Detroit, Michigan\u2019s Mexicantown, at Restaurante Salpic\u00f3n.
