Next year’s NFL Super Bowl half-time show will see Bruno Mars perform live, with the likes of Beyonce, Madonna and even Prince have played the sporting event in the past. A group of GWAR fans, however, are now looking for something a bit different.

Fans of the legendary satirical metal outfit are campaigning for the band to play the 2015 Super Bowl. As CoS point out, an online petition currently has nearly 20,000 signatures advocating for the feat.

Those behind the cause write:

“We don’t want another year of sitting around talking through a muted, boring NFL Super Bowl halftime show. We want something different. We want a real spectacle that only GWAR can provide. Doesn’t the NFL want more viewers? Don’t advertisers want more people paying attention? This way everyone wins.”

Could GWAR really play the Super Bowl? Probably not, but stranger things have happened due to the internet.
