Social media posters notice the most interesting things. Instead of focusing on the game and its players last night, all eyes were on Clete Blakeman, the ref explaining the calls during the Super Bowl.

Whether he likes it or not, Blakeman is now forever #hotref. If you are going to obsess over someone, you should at least know a little about him.

The hottie has been with the NFL since 2008 and was a Big 12 ref before that. In college, he was a backup quarterback for the University of Nebraska. He gives no indication as to what his workout plans are, giving him those buff arms that one Twitter feed referred to as 'the third hottest body on the field.'

Broncos fans love Clete, as they are now 6-0 in games when he was the head official this season, which is driving the annual 'The Super Bowl is rigged!' conspiracies. 

This isn’t the first time Blakeman has been noticed, he was first talked about on Twitter during the playoffs.
