    NFL Halftime Show (repost)

    It's violent sports season! That means it's time for our annual repost (or re-"goalpost," get it??) of fan and non-fan favorite, "NFL Halftime Show."   This sketch holds the Fallout Lounge record for largest cast ever; all of our regulars are featured, as well as several friends we shoved into recording closets.  The Ten Commandments had a smaller cast. Sound design, mix, and, yes, a couple of voices, by Dave Gerbosi.
