00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:03 This is the part of--
00:04 so I guess there's more waiting around for you,
00:07 maybe, than every other position,
00:09 depending on how the game goes.
00:10 But the halftime feels crazy to me,
00:14 because sometimes we'll do a live show or whatever,
00:16 and we're like, when is the game going to start up?
00:18 For you guys, obviously, routine is such a big part
00:21 of what you do.
00:22 Does that feel as long, or as usual, or way longer?
00:27 Well, here's what I'll tell you we did.
00:29 For the halftime show, not this week, but the previous week,
00:33 as you're leading up, it's all your prep.
00:34 So what I tried to do is I tried to simulate early in the week
00:39 what the game might feel like.
00:41 So if we were at practice, I would warm up pregame.
00:44 I'd kick in the middle of the period.
00:46 Then I'd wait like 30 minutes, and then go do it again.
00:49 So that was my halftime routine, based
00:51 on the schedule they gave you.
00:53 I would say that it doesn't really matter.
00:57 They could give you an hour and a half,
00:59 and it still feels like a full day.
01:00 Like, it doesn't matter.
01:01 One of the coolest things I did, my first Super Bowl,
01:04 is I went out early, and it was raining.
01:06 So it was Prince singing "Purple Rain."
01:09 And I was waiting just for--
01:10 like, I didn't want to sit in the locker room,
01:12 because it's just--
01:13 if you have the home locker room, it's bigger.
01:15 If you have the away locker room, the visitor locker,
01:17 it's really tiny.
01:18 And you have all the people, the staff, and it's just chaos.
01:21 And I think the big thing for me is I always
01:24 wanted to stay in the moment.
01:25 And I just know that the last thing I want to do
01:27 is sit in my locker like this, just waiting for these guys.
01:29 When are we going to go?
01:30 When are we going to go?
01:31 So those are kind of the memories
01:33 that I have from Super Bowl week.
01:36 (upbeat music)
