Why did Garth walk out of the Super Bowl? Has Garth Brooks ever done the Super Bowl halftime?

Garth Brooks almost cancelled his Super Bowl performance by walking off at the last minute in January 1993 following a disagreement with NBC decision-makers. He refused to perform the National Anthem if they were not going to air his video.

Garth Brooks was a country musical guest for Super Bowl XXVII where he was chosen as the National Anthem performer prior to Super Bowl 27 between the Buffalo Bills and the Dallas Cowboys at the Rose Bowl Stadium. He became the second country music star to perform during the big game’s broadcast after singing the national anthem at Super Bowl.

Garth Brooks’ diamond albums include Garth Brooks (diamond), No Fences (17× platinum), Ropin’ the Wind (14× platinum), The Chase (diamond), In Pieces (diamond), The Hits (diamond), Sevens (diamond), Double Live (21× platinum), and The Ultimate Hits (diamond).

Garth Brooks is second only to the Beatles in total album sales overall and has sold more solo albums ahead of Elvis Presley. He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2012, the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2011 and has also been inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2016 alongside The G-Men.
