mike's performance during the 1993 SuperBowl half-time show drew the largest TV audience in American history. the superbowl one of my fav teams, dallas cowboys, won. :)

provided a voiceover on The Simpsons - but it remained a secret for 12 years. He voiced a character in a mental institution in the Stark Raving Dad episode, which aired in 1991, but, because of a contractual problem, Jackson had to be credited as John Jay Smith. His contribution to the classic cartoon series remained a rumor among fans until The Simpsons creator Matt Groening.confirmed it really was Jackson when the episode was released on DVD in 2003
