MIAMI, FLORIDA: Bethenny Frankel had a front-row seat to the Super Bowl just not the one she was expecting.

'The Real Housewives of New York City' alum found herself trapped inside a bathroom at a Miami watch party on Sunday, turning a night of football into a personal escape mission and, of course, she documented the whole ordeal for her Instagram followers, reported by Page Six.

Bethenny Frankel’s Super Bowl nightmare

“You ready for this one? This s**t show!” Frankel, 54, said in a video, holding up what appeared to be a broken doorknob. “Everyone’s watching the game, and I’m texting all my friends, like, ‘I’m locked in the fricking bathroom!’”

Frankel initially wanted to keep her location private, but she ended up turning to social media for help when she found herself in a tricky situation at a party. “I’m screaming… Hello? Nothing! Because the game is on blast,” she said, frustration creeping into her voice.

Eventually, someone heard her pleas and attempted a rescue but the door refused to budge. “They can’t get in from the outside either,” Frankel sighed. A muffled voice apologized from the other side.

Frankel didn’t let a little bathroom fiasco ruin her night. Just before the ordeal, she had snapped a mirror selfie showing off her game-day look, a pink tank top, a white layered skirt, and a beige cardigan.

She also made it out just in time for the halftime show, later taking to Instagram to rave about Kendrick Lamar’s performance.

“I’ve obviously heard Kendrick Lamar’s name and his music, but I couldn’t have told you one of his songs,” she admitted. “I was watching the halftime show thinking, ‘Who is this?’ And I dig that guy’s music!”

Lamar performed alongside SZA and even featured Serena Williams in what many speculated was a subtle jab at Drake. While the halftime performance sparked mixed reactions, Frankel was all in. “I thought it was awesome,” she said.

Another joked about Frankel’s timing, saying, "Of course a selfie before she realized she was ‘trapped’ in the restroom. Someone, anyone, put a hit on me I just can’t anymore."

Meanwhile, others took the opportunity to critique the Super Bowl halftime show, "Consider yourself lucky. You missed Lamar Kendrik."
