I watched Super Bowl XXI (1987) ripped off of You Tube.

The theme was Disney Salutes Hollywood on its 100th Birthday.

It was not today’s Superbowl. Introduced by a 91 year old George Burns with Snow White as arm candy. Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Chip and Dale made short dance appearance with a cameo by Mickey Rooney.

The music was canned, and the performance was marching band and big dance number themed.

Even the commercials during the game were better.

Change isn’t always good. I liked the Chevrolet commercial but the original sung by Dinah Shore was better. They could have even reprised that and it would have been a hit!

Just like the rendition of “God Bless America” by Kate Smith!
There is none better.

But, that’s just old school, boomer me!
