A Bad Bunny look-alike contest at a San Francisco restaurant snowballed into a street party after hundreds of fans of the global superstar showed up to cheer his doppelgangers and sing along to his music ahead of his Super Bowl halftime show this weekend.

A Bad Bunny look-alike contest at a San Francisco restaurant snowballed into a street party after hundreds of fans of the global superstar showed up to cheer his doppelgangers and sing along to his music ahead of his Super Bowl halftime show this weekend.

More than 30 contestants from across the Bay Area, including men with tight curly hair, women in wigs and fake facial hair and a kindergartener in a fedora, white tank top and bow tie, competed for a $100 prize at a packed Mexican restaurant in the Mission neighborhood.

They channeled the 31-year-old Puerto Rican singer through some of his signature looks, donning straw hats known as a "pava" and traditionally worn by Puerto Rican farmers, or a shearling aviator hat like the one the artist has worn at times since the release his 2025 album, "Debi Tirar Mas Fotos," which translates to "I should have taken more photos." It won album of the year at the Grammy Awards on Sunday.

Adam Fox, 24, and his friend Alejandro Kurt, 23, traveled from Belmont, a city about 25 miles (40 kilometers) south of San Francisco, after both men with curly dark hair and dark facial hair were told they look like Bad Bunny.

Fox, an aspiring actor who wore a suit, bow tie, and dark sunglasses, said he is a fan of Bad Bunny's music even though he doesn't speak Spanish.

His music "is like art. You don't have to totally understand it. It could just be something that's beautiful," Fox said.

The contestants imitated Bad Bunny's "perreo," or twerking, and repeated his criticism of the Trump administration's mass deportation campaign with one wnnabe-Bad Bunny in a wig and a black tuxedo holding an "ICE Out" sign as she danced through the packed Tacolicious restaurant to roaring cheers from the crowd.

But the artist's music remained the focus of the look-alike contest organized by Mission Loteria, a group that promotes Latino businesses, with people spilling out to the street where a DJ played Bad Bunny's most-loved tracks and some in costumes resembling the Puerto Rican crested toad, an endangered species that is featured in one of his music videos, danced with contestants.

Pamela Guo, 33, traveled from San Jose to compete in the contest dressed in an aviator hat, shorts and an athletic jacket. Guo, who had a painted-on beard, said she is such a fan of the singer that she traveled to Mexico City to see him in concert.

"I love to perrear and dance, so I do love that aspect of his music," she said, adding that his last album has deeper lyrics that speak to her because they talk about our shared humanity.

The grand prize went to Abdul Ramirez Arroyave, a professional Bad Bunny impersonator from Colombia, who was dressed in a red shirt and straw hat on top a tight curly hair wig.

When asked to say a few words after his win, he said "thanks for everything" then broke into song with the crowd singing along Bad Bunny's "Debi tirar mas fotos."

Ramirez Arroyave then joined the party outside and took photos with his new adoring fans.

Former 49ers running back Roger Craig was inducted to the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2026 during the NFL Honors Award on Thursday night.

Craig was the first player ever to have 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving in the same season, which happened in 1985, and he led the NFL with 2,036 yards from scrimmage in 1988 when he helped San Francisco win the Super Bowl.

Craig also was part of the title-winning teams for the 49ers in the 1984 and 1989 seasons. His 410 yards from scrimmage in those Super Bowl wins are the third-most ever behind Hall of Famers Jerry Rice and Franco Harris.

After bilateral Achilles tendinitis and a right knee injury limited him to four games in 2024, McCaffrey returned to his usual, versatile self in 2025. This is McCaffrey's first Comeback Player of the Year award after finishing second in 2022. He earned it by virtue of his 2,126 scrimmage yards (second in the NFL) and 17 total touchdowns (third). Perhaps more important, McCaffrey started all 19 games, including playoffs. In the regular season, he had a league-high 413 touches, 44 more than the next closest player and the highest total of his nine seasons in the league.

When it was over, McCaffrey called 2025 "one of the hardest years of my life" because of the offseason spent rehabbing from his knee injury and strengthening his Achilles to take on the rigors of another season. As injuries mounted around him, McCaffrey was the one constant in San Francisco's offense, playing a pivotal role in helping the 49ers go 12-5 and reach the NFC divisional round.

"I think this was one of the most impressive seasons by an individual player ever," coach Kyle Shanahan said of McCaffrey. "Just in terms of what a warrior and man he is week in, week out. ... He commits himself 24 hours a day, seven days a week to get his body ready to go out there and compete. I've never been around anything like that." -- Nick Wagoner

What's going on with the substation next to Levi's Stadium and is it causing injuries? We spoke with the NFL's chief medical officer about that very subject, as well has how the league keeps players safe year-round.

A local story we've covered here has now hit national headlines and it has been the talk of the town for many during Super Bowl week.

What's going on with the substation next to Levi's Stadium and is it causing injuries?

We spoke with the NFL's chief medical officer about that very subject, as well has how the league keeps players safe year-round.

There's no denying it, football is a violent game and injuries are often inevitable.

But the NFL is constantly searching for ways to keep its players healthy and safe.

"We'd like to create the safest possible environment for the game to occur. And we believe that work is never done," Dr. Allen Sills said.

Sills is the NFL's Chief Medical Officer. Thursday he gave us a behind the scenes tour of Levi's Stadium to show us how they're doing that work.

From proper protective equipment in the locker room, to technology on the field and dozens of highly trained medical personnel.

"We've got a lot of protocol and plans that are always the same at every game and they get practiced," Sills said.

The NFL's focus includes research of potential or emerging threats to players' health - such as the "electromagnetic field exposure" conspiracy theory at Levi's Stadium.

"I have to ask you, since you're here in the Bay area right next door to the now viral substation, what are your thoughts on EMF and injuries for players?" ABC7 Eyewitness News South Bay reporter Dustin Dorsey asked.

"Yeah, what I've said is, I am not aware of anything in the sports medicine literature that supports and associated with the injury," Dr. Sills said. "In fact, we use electrical stimulation to treat a lot of injuries as a rehab modality. With that being said, we're always open minded."

It's how the NFL says they saw the fewest concussions in a season last year, after years of brain injuries being a lesser-studied area.

Dr. Sills says the NFL has a complete set of data to look at associations and trends, including the rising concern of how EMF may be impacting the 49ers.

It's information compiled year-round to make informed medical decisions for the health and safety of players - including this weekend on Super Sunday.

Dr. Stills says the goal is simple: despite all the preparation and planning that goes into this - he hopes none of it is necessary and all players stay out of the infamous blue medical tent on Super Bowl gameday.
