Man On The Street
Theis Week’s Question:
What did you think of the Super Bowl halftime show?
Katherine Villarreal
Major: Education
“I thought it was boring, overdone and insulting to those that had a platform and not wanting to indulge in it. Adam Levine taking his shirt off to bored fans couldn’t help the disappointment that people had for this year’s game. It was like the final nail in the football that deflated everyone’s expectations.”
Benjamin Ortiz
Major: Animal Science/Veterinary Technology
“I thought it was decent. The performance was good. I was watching it at a watch party for my organization and it felt like air being let of a tire when that Spongebob thing happened. Everyone was so excited and so happy, then you find out it’s Travis Scott. I think ‘Sicko Mode’ is going to be hated for years after this. They had a really golden opportunity to target a younger audience by honoring the creator, but they really dropped the ball on it.”
Kylie McIntosh
Major: English
“I didn’t watch it, but I heard it was a catastrophe. I actually boycott the Super Bowl, I don’t think the NFL does a good job at properly punishing their players that are charged with abuse, and they are ineffective at treating concussions.”
America Quintero
Major: Communications
“I thought it wasn’t as good as other halftime shows. It didn’t have as many elements as performances like Katy Perry’s or Lady Gaga’s. It was a little underwhelming for me. Something that was very controversial there was the addition of Spongebob. Some were expecting it and it didn’t happen. Adam Levine has a good voice, but it wasn’t a memorable performance.”
