Olivia Dunne Shares Humorous Take on Attending Football Games With Her Boyfriend

Their fall date night had fun elements for both of them to enjoy.

It’s football season, meaning that date night has, in many cases, become a little bit more sports-oriented of late. Attending a sporting event together can be a great way of spicing your typical dates up a bit—even if both parties aren’t equally invested in the game.

Olivia Dunne and her professional baseball-playing boyfriend, Paul Skenes, took this notion to heart over the weekend. The pair attended the New Orleans Saints game against the Detroit Lions on Dec. 3, embracing the spiced up date night idea. And while both found elements to enjoy (beyond, of course, each other’s company), it’s clear that they weren’t equally invested in the actual football part.

Dunne posted a hilarious clip to her TikTok following the outing, highlighting exactly that. The first part of the clip, which read “What my bf watches during the game,” featured a view of the football field, then panned to Skenes staring intently at the game.

The camera then turned on the 21-year-old herself and her view. “What I watch,” read the screen, as Dunne panned in on the Saints cheerleaders on the sidelines performing their stunts and routines.

“Mesmerizing,” the LSU gymnast quipped in the caption. Her fans seemed to agree with her version of “watching” football.

“realest thing ever,” one wrote in the comment section.

“honestly same,” another added.

“same girl same it’s more entertaining,” one follower concurred, to which Dunne replied, “They’re so fun.”

“My wife is the same way when we go to games,” someone else shared.
