'Weird Al' Yankovic: Fans want him for the Super Bowl

Beyonce, Bruno Mars… 'Weird Al' Yankovic?

If more than 67,000 petition signers have their way, the parody singer will join the list of artists who have performed at the Super Bowl. The petition, started by Ed Ball of Washington State, was created on Change.org and is addressed to the NFL.

“For decades Weird Al has entertained fans, young and old, with his popular clever parodies and unique sense of humor,” Ball’s petition reads. “Having him headline the Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show... 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 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.”

Did “UHF include Weird Al’s game show “WHEEL...OF....FISH!!!!”

Or was that where he played the space alien “Cabbage Man”?

Heck ya. I’d even watch it (for the first time).

He’s an entertainer, not a celebrity!!
