Should Gwar perform at the 2015 Super Bowl?

Nothing says football like shoulder pads, blood and heavy music, right? There's a petition going around online to have Gwar perform at the 2015 Super Bowl halftime show. Really.

Part of the petition reads:

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.

Plus, GWAR's relationship with American football is one of the strongest in music. Front man Dave Brockie writes a football column for MetalSucks.com called "Necessary Roughness" even the "The Dan Patrick Show" has an Oderous mask on display. It's been suggested by Sports Illustrated that GWAR should become mascots!

Think it's a joke? While I'd say it's not likely, they've already gotten more than 17,500 signatures. It just won't happen this year - Bruno Mars is slated to be the performer.
