Superbowl Ads - My Personal Favorites

As I watched the superbowl wondering who'd win the individual matchups, most notably Brees versus Manning, I kept being told to choose between Team Kendra and Team Kim. (The respective girlfriends of NFL players on both sides of the game, Hank Baskett and Reggie Bush) While I rolled my eyes at such foolishness, I was reminded of the insane numbers put up just a few weeks ago in the AFC and NFC championship games. Records of 48 and 50-somthing million viewers tuned in to find out who would come down to Miami to play for the Lombardi trophy. Those were records for that round of the playoffs.

With the economy's still in the stinker, there's no doubt that America continues to love football. Even more so, we love celebrities and Superbowl ads. While I'm not going to dissect the game (the better team won), I will provide links to my favorite Superbowl commercials of this year, including a Budlight commercial spoofing my favorite show about people stranded on a certain mysterious island. Enjoy!

Doritos

Doritos aired several commercials, these are my favorites.

McDonalds

McDonalds made a recreation of the original Larry Bird versus Michael Jordan playing horse commercial by dueling young phenoms Dwight Howard and Lebron James in a dunking contest. A familiar face also makes an appearance.

I included the original commercial, for reference sake.

Bud Light

What a surprise! Bud Light spoofed Lost by having some beer wash up on shore in their first days on the island. Hilarity ensues.

A Few Other Favorites from Past Years

I hope someone finds these clips to be as hilarious, entertaining, and a great waste of time as I did!
