Now I don’t know anything about NFL Superbowl, other than it is a HUGE sporting event. This years league championship game was between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks, and the patriots won.
The reason it has come to my attention is because there was an article about it in one of our tabloid newspapers. Now you might be mistaken for thinking that it focused on the game; all the drama, and excitement, plus the tension, the crowd etc. It didn’t!
Oh no, this article was all about Katy Perry and her dancing sharks! Well, as soon as I saw the headline, I decided that it needed further investigation, and I was not disappointed! There was even a video clip for my delight and entertainment!
And was I entertained! Katy Perry herself, looked as stunning as always, but whose idea was it to have dancing sharks? I mean for God’s sake, look at the outfits they had to wear for a start! How can anyone be expected to dance in that? They look like something that they used to make contestants wear in ‘It’s a Knockout’ in order to hamper their movements.
It seems like it had the same effect here. The poor old shark in the left got a little confused as to what they were doing, and must have thought that if he(or she) kept moving no-one would notice. After all, there is no way the dance routine is going to be that elaborate with a limited range of movement, (Those outfits might as well be straightjackets)! Ok if you want to do that Irish dancing where you don’t move your arms I suppose!
One other thing I would like to mention about the poor sharks is their sad expressions! Now I am not surprised given that they could hardly move, and one of them has messed up the routine, but honestly, their morose expressions said it all! Poor buggers!
It made me laugh though!

Hahahaha I’m definitely going to check out the video now!!

you see, for me, if it isn’t Prince doing the half time show, I am not interested.
Funny sharks though – I will have to re-watch as I missed the shark with the mis-steps.

I for one agonized through that routine. Never did understand the shark thing. I recall asking my wife: “Are we being entertained yet?” She responded: “Shuttup!” So I then asked her: “At what point does it get entertaining?” She responded yet again: “Shuttup!” So I shuttup-ed during what was one of the most horrible half-time shows in sports.

Ha Ha! Poor you, sounds like you (and your wife) suffered a bit watching that. I however, laughed my head off at the clip I saw!

You’re dead right about the It’s a Knockout leftover costumes… tragic… I only watched the entertainment. Love Katy Perry. Found the sharks totally naff… I have no idea how the American game works… I’m an avid fan of the equally bizarre Australian version of football. But like you, I had a good giggle.

Yes I like Katy Perry as well. Just felt sorry for the poor sharks! I prefer Rugby to football anyway. 🙂

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on!

I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
