We were reminded on Super Bowl Sunday why we love Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, whose North American tour tickets are on sale as we speak.

At the Super Bowl halftime show, Petty took the stage with his Heartbreakers and rocked out an amazing set of his biggest hits – “American Girl,” “I Won’t Back Down,” “Free Fallin’” and “Running Down a Dream.”

Petty upstaged a pitiful pregame performance from the lip-synching, pre-taped phenomenon, Paula Abdul. Question: Why did she lip-synch a pre-taped performance?
