Tebow Touchdown Passes Twitter Record

On January 9th, 2012, after Tebow made a touchdown pass resulting in the Broncos first playoff win, Tweets related the quarterback’s pass broke Twitter’s record for tweets related to a sports event with 9,420 tweets per second, which beat Beyonce’s pregnancy announcement of 8,868 tweets per second. The new record was subsequently covered on Mercury News[21], Mashable[23] and NBC.[22]

seems like an odd way to measure something.. using a rate rather than a quantity doesn't really give you a clear picture of what exactly happened, unless also given the time frame.. but if that is given then why not just a quantity.. so yeah..

Yeah that's stupid, made even less impressive by the part where they say it barely even beat Beyonces pregnancy announcement.

How is Beyonce's pregnancy announcement related to a sports event?
