Just months after the 9/11 attacks, U2 delivered a heartfelt performance that served as a tribute to the victims. The band played "Beautiful Day," "MLK," and "Where the Streets Have No Name," while a giant screen scrolled the names of those who lost their lives in the attacks. The emotional climax came when Bono opened his jacket to reveal an American flag lining, a gesture that moved many to tears. U2's performance remains one of the most poignant moments in Super Bowl history.
