In the old days didn't the NFL or AFL just have local High school or college bands play at half time? Can't we go back to that? This is getting ridiculous.

FYI: Lil Wayne is from NOLA and a Trump supporter.

I am of Kendrick’s generation and would prefer Pat Benatar or Diana Ross - both are still alive and incredible performers.

That was the most awful simulation of music that I’ve ever heard (thankfully for only a few seconds before I hit the mute button). Evidently, evolution does not work for ...uh....whatever that crap was taking bodacious dumps on my speakers. And one wonders why no ones gives a **** about the “Grime-bys”.

Flush, repeat, flush, repeat. Now, now to get rid of the smell.

I watched an episode of Bonanza during half time.
Good guys won.

Why does anyone watch the SB halftime show? They have been so bad I wait until halftime to have dinner knowing I’m not going to miss anything.

Sports commentators offering commentary about a stupid halftime show is the textbook definition of “jumping the shark.”

I don’t watch tv, but watched about a minute of a YT clip of the halftime ‘show’.

As Jed Clampett would say: “pah-theh-tick!... jeessst pathetic!”

As a high school and college band member, I was disappointed that Southern’s band, all over it for the pre-game show, wasn’t the main attraction for Halftime. That would’ve been OUTSTANDING and a major crowd pleaser. Broadcast without interruption or COMMENTARY. Football fans do not leave their seats if a good marching band or corps is performing. Universally appealing across every demographic.

God love you...

Completely non- relatable to 90% of the world audience, DEI hires in action. The NFL...

I like the idea of traditional halftime shows. No need for extending the time of regulation halftime. Play ball, not politics.

I lost interest in the entire SB show when it became apparent that it was KC turn to lose! SMH

I missed the rappers freak out halftime show. I always go out for some fresh air. Last time I watched was when the Stones and the Who were on, about 17 years ago. I despise all rap music. The only good rapper is 50¢. He’s the maga mega-troll. He is hilarious and loves classic cars. So he is no commie.

The Not Like Us rapper, who included his famous diss track about bitter rival Drake, was slammed for putting on 'the worst halftime show ever' as fans made their displeasure known.

That is an understatement.

Not a fan of the music but is it being panned because there was too much red white and blue and Samuel Jackson was dressed like Uncle Sam?

Probably the most "patriotic" rap performance I have ever seen.

The NFL should’ve been apologizing to US, for allowing that crap on the field.
