Sure the Steelers & Cardinals played their hearts out, but they had a full 60 minutes to do it. Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band, plus the Miami Horns, and a full choir, had only 12 minutes to let it all out. So who played the best?Well, let's just say the Boss showed us exactly why he is. He played four songs and subtly shortened them without ever crossing into cornball-best-of-medley territory. He started with 10th Avenue Freeze, giving newcomers a quick history lesson on the formation of the E St. Band, followed by Born to Run, one of Rock 'N Roll's greatest anthems. Next he gave the world at large a taste of his latest work, with the title cut from Working on a Dream–with a little help from the choir. Glory Days ended the half time show of the country's biggest party in high style, with a sports-themed, party romp. For a guy who became famous playing 3 to 4 hour concerts, Bruce showed he can also prove it all night, in 12 minutes flat.
