CBS was not ready for Sunday's AFC championship halftime show.
When the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals left the field for the break, the network's studio crew took over the broadcast from the sideline at Arrowhead Stadium. Meanwhile, country artist Walker Hayes took center stage to entertain the Kansas City crowd.
As host James Brown introduced the studio show, Hayes started his, with a stack of speakers placed directly behind the CBS desk. Brown didn't stand a chance.
Someone at CBS forgot to check halftime show speaker levels.
