Default Superbowl Ads

In recent years I have come to watch the Superbowl almost as much for the ads as for the game, as I know many people do. What were your favorite ads, if you watched the game. Personally, I loved the Diet Pepsi Max commerical with all the head bobbing to "What is Love" by Haddaway. I also really liked the Coke commerical with the giant balloons of Underdog, Stewie (from Family Guy) and Charile Brown, though I thought there were quite a few entertaining ones out there. Of course there were some really bad ones also. Makes you wonder why someone would put up so much money to put such a crappy commerical on the air. What were your favorites? Or was there one that you felt was so bad you just have to rant about it?

I thought it was a pretty poor showing. It seemed everyone was trying too hard and missing the mark in the process.

The only one that I thought was particularly good was the Budweiser "Hank" ad.

Yeah, nothin to write home about this year. Though the dog drinking the Gatorade at the end just cracked me up! My dog (all dogs) can get pretty noisy drinking so this one with the excessive slurping really had me going.

My personal favorite was the squirrel ad. Perhaps I just love squirrels though.
