The NFL might not be too happy about this, but one dedicated fan found an ingenious way to watch the Super Bowl 50 game in San Francisco, California without having to pay for a ticket.

Scott Kelly went above infinity and beyond by convincing NASA to let him into the International Space Station the same day as the Super Bowl. Clever!

Here is his breathtaking view from the noserupture section. Apparently this stolen seat is so far in the sky, Kelly has to wear a special suit just to breathe!

Got to see the #SuperBowl in person after all! But at 17,500MPH, it didn't last long. #YearInSpace pic.twitter.com/O0DygOdX8i

Kelly is an astronaut currently at the Station for a special year-long NASA mission. He is apparently watching the game with fellow astronaut Tim Kopra, although another Kelly tweet made it seem like Kopra had better things to do.

Hosted #SuperBowl party on @space_station, but no one showed up. I would have served nachos! #YearInSpace pic.twitter.com/Vpqxp1wDuf
