The Super Bowl halftime show always inspires some great moments and some great jokes. Usher’s fantastic performance accomplished both.
Whether it was the music legend skating around on roller skates or performing with Alicia Keys, there was plenty to talk about during the star-studded halftime show.
One of the best parts of the performance was Usher teaming up with Ludacris and Lil Jon to bring back the 2004 club anthem “Yeah!” for everyone in Las Vegas and at home.
However, Usher and Ludacris wore these really fascinating purple outfits that reminded everyone of the movie Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story.
In that film, Ben Stiller’s villainous White Goodman led the team you rooted against, the Globo Gym Purple Cobras, who wore purple outfits when they played on the dodgeball court in the movie.
Usher and Ludacris sporting those purple outfits had everyone thinking about Dodgeball and the Purple Cobras in particular.

Usher was awesome, but am I the only one who thought he was dressed like he was about to play dodgeball for the Globo Gym Purple Cobras?
