Not everyone could physically make it to Super Bowl LIV to see the Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Fransisco 49ers, but at the end of the night, some particularly vocal sports fans were on the field in spirit.

After the Big Game ended, confetti covered the field at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium, and among the yellow and red bits of paper were pieces of white confetti with real tweets printed on them.

Turns out, Twitter teamed up with the NFL to make it rain sports tweets at the end of the night. And if you tweeted before the game using the hashtag #NFLTwitter, your tweet may have been part of the Super Bowl celebration.

As the field cleared off, people were able to get a better look at the tweet-fetti and snap some photos. The Twitter Sports account spent the night tweeting confetti shots at users so that people were able to locate their own tweets. Since the confetti included users' handles, several confetti finders also decided to reach out to the people who composed the tweets. How fun!

One of the tweets was even from quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes II. And did we mention he tweeted it in 2013? Talk about iconic.

Tweeting being shot into the world as confetti sounds like a very bad concept. But honestly? This was good.
