Lies, damned lies and Statista, eh?

I’ll pass on the manipulated data, with all due respect.

“We turn the TV off during half-time.”

I DVR and delay the replay. Also helps when referees take 10 minutes to make a call or the defensive lineman flops as the other team is making a potential winning drive.

Rock music is Boomer and Gen X music. Their heyday is over.

So they don't have to humiliate themselves and lip sync

The programners of the NFL are trying to attract viewers at halftime!

Who are the most popoular artists on the charts?

Classic rock bands are mostly dead. Except for the Rolling Stones, who already played there. Played there. (And only 3/5ths are so alive.

What contemporary rock bands are nearly as popukar as Drake, J.Lo, Shakira, Eminem. Dr. Dre, etc?

Even the great alertnative bands of the 1990s are all past their prime, many are defunct.

U2 might be the only exception I can think of that is still entact and perfotming. But they haven't had a charting record in a decade.

Boomers love football. X'ers like it too. The NFL is trying to get Milleniums and Zoomers to watch.

Halftime shows should be performed by marching bands--as was the case with Super Bowl I.

Don’t watch the game, but I’d certainly tune in for this: When Legends Rise

It’s already a football theme…

“Imagine someone suggesting having the Eagles or America as a half time show.”

I might turn ON the game just for halftime if the Eagles were the show.
