SPRINGSTEEN AT THE SUPER BOWL
"I want you to step back from the guacamole dip," Bruce howled. "I want you to put the chicken fingers down and turn your television all the way up. And what I want to know is, is there anybody alive out there?"
So began an electrifying halftime performance by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. The Boss played the Super Bowl for just twelve minutes, but there were no complaints. And no ballads. Just a rocking good time smack dab in the middle of a great Super Bowl.
Did you see the game? What about James Harrison’s 100-yard interception return? What about Arizona wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald? What about the calls? Do you think Kurt Warner’s fumble at the end of the game deserved another look? All I can say is, no nachos today.
