Now panel, what will be the big story out of this weekend's Super Bowl? Roxanne Roberts.

SAGAL: Luke Burbank.

LUKE BURBANK: A shocking wardrobe malfunction for Lady Gaga when she accidentally remembers to wear clothes.

(LAUGHTER)

SAGAL: And Faith Salie.

FAITH SALIE: Beyonce will give birth during halftime, and her babies will be Lady Gaga's backup dancers.

(LAUGHTER)

BILL KURTIS: Well, if any of that happens, we will ask you about it on WAIT WAIT... DON'T TELL ME.
