    Halftime Entertainment thoughts???

    Curious as to the response.

    For me, I just yawned and wished Paul McCartney would've performed instead-but I'm an old fart. Lenny Kravitz was fine, but would've liked more of him.

    Hope the game is more exciting in the 2nd half. (Before I fall asleep)

    It was completely crazy, which all you can realistically hope to get from a corporate spectacle. I love Macca, but his halftime show was boring as hell.

    It was okay, I would have recommended some different costume choices.

    I thought it was pretty good - more suitable for family viewing than I thought it might be.

    Has there ever been a good SB half-time show?

    Shoveled snow instead of watching , sounds like I chose wisely.

    So Katy Perry literally Jumped the Shark, in front of a billion viewers?

    I really liked it. Dancing palm trees, who'd a thunk it! I confess, they had me at Katy Perry.
    Man, if your Mom made you wear that color when you were a baby, and you're still wearing it, it's time to grow up!

    I watched it with my 7 year old daughter, so I thought it was great.

    Lenny Kravitz was excellent in a too brief appearance, Missy Elliott was awesome, and Katy Perry brought the entertainment as I thought she would. All in all, pretty good!

    Springsteen. Especially leading off with "Born to Run" after Harrison's interception return.

    I was impressed by how bad the audio was. I probably would have liked the show more if I could have heard it better.
    Being a land shark was the highlight of some dancer's career.

    Once I heard it was gonna be Katy Perry I lost interest. They need people who are real entertainers and not freaking weirdos

    Seemed as if they tried to appeal to a very young audience and didn't care about any of us who would actually be those buying many of the products advertised throughout the whole evening. Not that it would persuade me into buying said product, but at least I'm in the position to buy some of the products. Hence my comment about Paul McCartney. I thought they appealed more to my kids than my wife and myself. Just a thought.

    I guess the NFL is more concerned about drawing in the next generation of fans. My daughter watched the game with me from kick-off to Katy Perry; gone after that.

    I thought Bruno Mars last year was pretty good. Hated the Black-Eyed Peas. And although The Who is one of my all-time favorite bands and have seen them live numerous times, that was a really odd choice a few years ago.

    Katy Perry to me was visually fascinating but musically bland.
