Granted, this was the first time Super Bowl halftime entertainment was anything other than a marching band, so it was, technically, a big step forward. But still, using a marching band and just adding (football fan favorite?) Carol Channing into the mix for a "Mardi Gras tribute" isn't really that big of a step forward. Video of this is "coincidentally" not on the internet, but this is still remembered as one of least enjoyed or appropriate halftime shows in a history that's full of them.
