Super Bowl LIII set streaming records
#1
The wire dive was subpar, but fans quickly forgot it once the real performance began. She danced to her best songs and then slowed it all down by playing on her piano. Gaga came out to give fans a show they would enjoy without pulling out all the stops that tend to end in disaster. It was solid and true, and America loved every aspect of it, which is why it sits at the top of our ranking.

But bigger than the game itself is the halftime show, which attracts the brightest stars in music and has become the ultimate marriage of sports and pop culture. It’s a spectacle that can make or break careers, and make terms like “wardrobe malfunction” synonymous with football. But it all began humbly, nearly 100 years ago, with a racist dog show starring the greatest American athlete in history and designed with one thing in mind — to advertise and sell.

In 1922, when Lingo purchased the Indians, professional football’s popularity ranked a distant second to the college game, which had many of the nation’s biggest stars along with a level of pageantry the pro game still lacked. Travelling squads were common, and the Indians, with their mud-caked, non-regulation field, would have to trek 15 miles to Marion, Ohio just to play their home games, where they only played twice.

The on-field product was also a fair bit different from the one we know today: The games were low-scoring, playing both sides of the ball was the norm, passing was a last resort and punting on third down was a common strategy to pin opposing teams in their own territory. Also hurting the game’s popularity was the amount of “dead time in between halves,” says Robert Lingo, Walter’s son.

well above their average of 1,200 per contest. Lingo believed Thorpe could generate those same kinds of attendance numbers for him and was willing to pay handsomely. He offered Thorpe $500 a week to be the player-coach of an all-Native American team, as well as his kennel supervisor. Thorpe agreed and the next year Lingo bought the team that would become the Oorang Indians for $100. La Rue, which had less than 1,000 residents at the time, is still the smallest town to ever host an NFL franchise.

We all knew Katy Perry's performance would be exceptional, but we never expected anything as grand as this. She went through several wardrobe changes, rode a giant metal lion, and had dancing sharks. These sharks stole the show, especially the one on the left, as it delivered an impromptu performance that fans thought was botched.
