I love GWAR! Recently, a fan, née bohab, created a petition to get GWAR to be the halftime show at the Super Bowl, which would make it the best Super Bowl ever. As of this writing, the petition has over 43,000 signatures
It turns out that GWAR front-thing Oderus Urungus doesn't even want to play the halftime show anyway!
In a new interview with Metro Saskatoon, he was asked about the petition, and clarified his position:
Q: How is your quest to play the Super Bowl coming along?
I think the entire world could sign that petition and it wouldn’t make any difference. Maybe, just maybe, the NFL will listen to reason and get the message that people are sick to death with these prefab pop stars coming in. If any kind of music should be played at the halftime show, it should be punk and metal, that’s the sound the NFL should have.
Q: If given the chance, what would you submit the millions of viewers who watch the big game to?
GWAR is not so much interested in playing the halftime show as the game itself. In fact, I have gone ahead and thrown down the challenge. Basically what I’m saying is GWAR versus the entire NFL.
We will take on the entire NFL including the coaching staff and the cheerleaders. And I have no doubt that we will emerge victorious.
As seen in our GWARBQ report, if GWAR can take out the president and Hitler, surely they can take out the entire NFL!
