Daily MailA DOGE lawmaker is blowing the whistle on over $1.2 million worth of federal funds spent on studying the drinking and sex habits of Super Bowl watchers. During these reviews Senate DOGE Caucus Chair Joni Ernst came across some shocking Super Bowl-related expenditure ahead of this weekend's big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans. 'We've been focusing on the Super Bowl, and what we have seen is about $1.2 million spent by the National Institutes of Health on a pair of studies to figure out if there is more binge drinking on Super Bowl Sunday, and then if there is a baby boom nine months later in the winning team city,' Ernst told DailyMail.com. One 2017 study titled 'Super Bowl Babies': Do Counties with Super Bowl Winning Teams Experience Increases in Births Nine Months Later' received a staggering $710,000 dollars from NIH.
