Erm....how long is half time exactly that they'd need an entire show to fill it?

 

[PT]

Well, it is supposed to be 15 minutes, and lively talk amongst the announcers used to fill the gap quite adequately, but of course the Super Bowl requires more entertainment than that, and I believe it stretches out to however long they see fit.

 

[unclehobart]

Superbowl halftimes tend to be 30 minutes.

 

[AlphaTroll]

Flippen hell! Why bother with such a long break? See, I knew real men play rugby.....no unnecessary padding.....guys actually tackle each other HARD & get up to play again.....and they only need a 10 minute break

Grid Iron? My ass! More like Icecapades on grass

A normal game has 4 :15 quarters with a :02 break between & a :12 break for the half. This is not a regular game. It's a revenue stream.

 

[AlphaTroll]

And rugby has two 40 minute halves with only 10 minutes break (5 minutes at schools level)...... I still don't see the need for so many breaks - just slows the game down dunnit?

 

[tonksy]

halftime during the superbowl is as long as it is so that you can all take potty breaks...lord knows you don't want to miss the game or the commercials.

 

[AlphaTroll]

Well, trust a mother to at least have a reasonable explanation

 

[Gonz]

the quarter breaks are to switch directions (wind conditions)

I didn't make the rules I just enjoy the game

 

[AlphaTroll]

They give them a break because of wind conditions? So, if it rains, do they call off the matches?

 

[tonksy]

no...they play in rain and snow...the quarter breaks are just to switch sides for fairness and they don't last long at all.

 

[AlphaTroll]

Oh, guess you learn something new every day then

Well, I've never really understood much of it anyway, but what little I now know will come in handy....I'm quite sure of that.

NEW YORK (CBS) -- An official at CBS on Monday called the baring of Janet Jackson's breast during the Super Bowl halftime show "deplorable". So we have decided to tone down the show for next year.

Do you wonder what kind of mindless, self-righteous prigs we've become as a society that this is still news?
