Nobody went to that Beyonce Super Bowl protest at NFL headquarters
When Beyonce used her Super Bowl 50 halftime show to send a message to America by honoring the Black Panthers and Malcolm X, it worked the Internet up into a frothing rage with a lot of people saying Beyonce had crossed the line.
How dare she use the Super Bowl -- America's biggest entertainment prop -- as a prop!
Shortly, a group page sprouted up that planned a Beyonce protest outside NFL headquarters in New York, which then spawned an anti-anti-Beyonce protest page (you can't make Internet rage up).
That protest, and anti-protest, was all supposed to go down on Feb. 16.
So let's go live to the NFL headquarters this morning:

Yep -- all those outraged people who promised to protest outside the NFL's offices never bothered to show up. The few people that did show up were Beyonce supporters.
