Fan FAQs

Who's the #1 contender on GoatWars in this league?

Prince's 2007 performance is currently the top dog on the GOAT List. His legendary set in the rain, especially that guitar solo during 'Purple Rain,' really sets the bar high for what a Super Bowl halftime show can be.

What makes Katy Perry's 2015 halftime show so memorable for fans?

Fans absolutely adore Katy Perry's 2015 show for its sheer spectacle and fun. Who could forget Left Shark and its delightfully offbeat dancing? Plus, Katy's entrance on a giant robotic lion and her fireworks finale left quite the impression. It's a show that epitomizes pop fun and larger-than-life theatrics.

Why is Janet Jackson & Justin Timberlake's 2004 show winning over Katy Perry's 2015 performance?

Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake's 2004 halftime show has a notorious edge that keeps fans talking, thanks to that infamous 'wardrobe malfunction.' It's not just about the controversy though; it was a high-energy, star-studded performance that really stands out in memory. That's likely why it's currently leading against Katy Perry's show.
