The Super Bowl 53 halftime show featured Maroon 5, Travis Scott, and Big Boi. At one point, Maroon 5 teased that “Sweet Victory” from SpongeBob Squarepants would be performed.

A lot of us SpongeBob fanatics (ya damn right I still watch it) were pushing for this to happen after Stephen Hillenburg, the show’s creator, died this past November at age 57 after his battle with ALS. There was a whole Change.org petition to get the ball rolling with 1.2 million signatures.
My only gripe with the halftime show — which was visually pleasing and fine if you like Maroon 5 with a splash of Big Boi, and “Sicko Mode” sprinkled on top — was that it didn’t have the whole song. SpongeBob opened for Travis Scott, when Travis Scott should be opening for Spongebob.
All that said, here’s our anthem. Enjoy:
