And for a little blast from the past of the very best kind, we can’t help but revisit the Super Bowl Shuffle and fast forward to Gary Fencik, between the “Sackman” and the “Fridge”, dropping these famous lyrics:

“It’s Gary here, and I’m Mr.Clean. They call me “hit man”. Don’t know what they mean. They throw it long and watch me run, I’m on my man, one-on-one. Buddy’s guys cover it down to the bone, That’s why they call us the 46 zone. Come on everybody let’s scream and yell, We’re goin’ to do the Shuffle, Then ring your bell.”
