Super Bowl XXXVI - Television and entertainment
The game was broadcast in the United States by FOX and was the last to feature the broadcast team of play-by-play announcer Pat Summerall and color commentator John Madden; both had worked together since 1981. James Brown hosted all the events with help from his then-fellow FOX NFL Sunday cast members Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long and Cris Collinsworth.
The overall theme of the Super Bowl entertainment was a celebration the freedom and spirit of America.
Super Bowl XXXVI - Pregame ceremonies
Before the game, an ensemble of singers Barry Manilow, Yolanda Adams, James Ingram, Wynonna and Patti LaBelle performed Manilow's song "Let Freedom Ring".
In a video segment, past and present NFL players read excerpts from the Declaration of Independence. Former U.S. presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, George H. W. Bush, and Bill Clinton appeared in another videotaped segment and recited some of the speeches by Abraham Lincoln. Because Ronald Reagan was suffering from Alzheimer's disease, his wife Nancy appeared on the segment instead.
Singers Mary J. Blige and Marc Anthony, along with the Boston Pops Orchestra, performed "America the Beautiful". Paul McCartney then sang his 9/11 tribute song "Freedom." Afterwards, singer Mariah Carey, accompanied by the Boston Pops Orchestra, performed the national anthem.
George H. W. Bush became the first president, past or present, to participate in a Super Bowl coin toss in person (Ronald Reagan participated in the Super Bowl XIX coin toss via satellite from the White House in 1985). Bush was joined by hall of fame and former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach, who played at the United States Naval Academy.
Super Bowl XXXVI - Halftime show
The halftime show featured an incredible three-song set from Irish rockers U2, fresh off their successful Elevation Tour. After renditions of "Beautiful Day" and "MLK", the band launched into "Where the Streets Have No Name," featuring two backdrops with the names of victims of the 9/11 attacks floating into the sky behind the band and Bono opening his jacket to reveal an American flag printed into the lining.
