If you watched Rihanna's halftime performance during Super Bowl LVII yesterday and you're from St. Louis, you had just one thought: Becky!
Rihanna's floating stage had many people across the world making Aladdin jokes, but here in St. Louis all we saw was Becky, Queen of Carpet.

Becky is St. Louis television commercial royalty. Back in the day, she used to fly across our TV screens on her magic carpet while advertising her various carpet stores across the area. Sometimes she'd even have a friend along with her, too, called Wanda, Princess of Tile.
Anyone else getting Becky Queen of Carpet vibes? #stlwx #Rihanna

Becky's gimmick was so memorable that it's difficult to see anybody seeming to be on a magic flying carpet without thinking of her, and the proof is that St. Louis social media channels lit up last night with references to Becky during halftime.
