Ed Ball, big time NFL and Weird Al fan, has placed a petition on Change.com. He is looking for 25,000 signatures to send to the NFL requesting Weird Al to be the headliner for next February’s Super Bowl. This petition is only a few days old and it already has 23, 138 supporters. It should have over the 25,000 by the end of the day.
I love Weird Al. He is a great artist and a tremendous entertainer. I saw him a few years ago at a County Fair with 100 Degree temperature. He put on a fantastic show for hours in the heat. He will have no problem with putting on a 10 minute show for the Super Bowl.
I have already signed the petition. Make sure to go to Change.com if you would like to sign it.
Here is the description of the petition.
For decades Weird Al has entertained fans, young and old, with his popular clever parodies and unique sense of humor. Having him headline the Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show. would not only be overly accepted by the millions of views, but it would remain true to the standards and quality of the show business we have come to love and respect out of this prestigious event. The songs of artists that he is parodying could join him on stage to accompany, as well as other surprise appearances from well-known actors/actresses, adding more prestige and star power. The theatrics alone would be hilarious and a welcoming change, and draw a wider audience of fans that typically would not tune into the championship game or half-time show. (Change.com)
