Christina Aguilera has the right kind of voice to belt out a memorable national anthem. Unfortunately, her performance at Super Bowl XLV will be remembered for the wrong reason.
As you've probably heard, Aguilera flubbed the anthem, forgetting the lyric "oíer the ramparts we watched."
Aguilera is far from the first person to botch the Star Spangled Banner. Check out last night's flub and seven other singers who made a mess of the anthem on much smaller stages.
Christina suffers a lyrical malfunction midway through her rendition of the National Anthem. About :51 sec in, as she was about to sing the fourth line ("o'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming") she sang this line: "what so proudly, we watched, at the twilight's last streaming." Here is the video.
The Super Bowl is the best (or worst) day of the year for gamblers. That’s because Vegas, in an attempt to squeeze every last dollar out of the big game, will let you bet on just about anything tangentially related to Super Bowl. We scoured the Internet to find ten prop bets that have little or nothing with the actual play on the field, but can keep you entertained all day Sunday and beyond.
Sure, you can bet on the outcome of the game. (Yawn!) Or you can throw away a few bucks, and buy some Super Bowl squares from the office party planner. (Nag!)
How about putting your money where the real action is?

We’ve compiled a list of the five most memorable of these legendary Super Bowl halftime shows, which should be the ones the Black Eyed Peas try to match when they take the field this weekend at Cowboy Stadium.
An ad meant to air during the Super Bowl was just rejected. Fox Sports thinks the commercial will stir up too much controversy. What do you think? Watch the video, and feel free to leave your comments below.
Usually I get together with friends for the Super Bowl. I don't care about the actual game, but I do like to watch the commercials and the halftime show.
Come Monday morning, there’s a chance a player like Aaron Rodgers or Clay Matthews or Ben Roethlisberger or Troy Polamalu will have etched their name on the Super Bowl MVP trophy with the kind of performance that will be remembered for years to come.
Or, perhaps, a more obscure player will rise to the occasion and leave an indelible mark on the most important sporting event of the year.
Here is our list of the five greatest individual performance in Super Bowl history, with apologies to Jerry Rice, who would have probably snagged the six and the seven spot.
Ouida White and her boyfriend Aaron, who live in a homeless shelter in Green Bay, had no idea The Dallas Convention and Visitors Bureau was running a contest in which the first person in Green Bay who approached their “mystery man” and asked him “Have you been to Dallas?” would get a free Super Bowl package.
But the pair caught on when folks started walking up to them and asking them this questions. On their fourth try, Ouida and Aaron found the mystery man, and the homeless couple became the big winners.
