Prince’s Passing Reminds Us Of His Performance During Downpour At Halftime Of Super Bowl 41

Shocking news from the music world today that is reverberating into the sports world.
Iconic musician Prince has passed away at 57.

Former Seattle SuperSonic Gary Payton was one of the first to tweet his reaction to the news.

Prince's performance at halftime of Super Bowl 41 is considered by many to be the best in the game's history. Through a rain and wind storm, Prince was able to hold down the Super Bowl XLI Halftime Show with a spectacular performance.

His setlist included: Queen's legendary sports anthem "We Will Rock You", "Let's Go Crazy", "Baby I'm a Star", Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Proud Mary," Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower," the Foo Fighters' "Best of You," and his somewhat autobiographical "Purple Rain."
