Superbowl Commercials

So this year’s Superbowl has come and gone. Congrats to the Saints, the city of New Orleans and Kim Kardashian’s big ‘ol booty!

For most of the country, the Superbowl is mainly watched for the 30 second commercials which are rudely interrupted by the game of football. Can you believe it costs almost $3 million for that thirty seconds!? INSANE!! But I have noticed as I get older the commercials get worse and worse as the price continues to soar. Another problem I have with these commercials is the concept that if I see a funny commercial I am going to get that product. I am a Bud Light fan and always have been and will be. Now if they did not waste all that money on what seemed like 10 commercials is that going to ruin my enjoyment of their product!? I really don’t get why Budweiser and Bud Light feel they have to exert all this time and money to make commercials for their fans. I doubt they will lose or gain many drinkers based on there 30 second clips. It just doesn’t make sense to me, I mean if this time and money were used to promote a new product to the masses then sure it would make sense, but honestly what a waste. I’m usually too drunk to remember half the commercials I see anyway, but I bet Bud Light would cost a lot less if the company didn’t waste all this dough on TV time for the Superbowl.

Insanity aside, sure tackling Betty White is humorous and who doesn’t love those sexy girls from godaddy.com, wait scratch that they removed all top heavy sexy women and replaced them with Danika Patrick, EPIC FAIL!

Really?!?!

You know it’s bad when I enjoy the e-trader babies more then an attempt at a sexy woman gone wrong, but I must give kudos to Doritos. Doritos has realized it is all about the common fan. The overweight, over opinionated guy sitting on his couch stuffing his face watching football. The geniuses over at Dorito’s  departmentrealized let’s let these chessefinger licking fatties do the hard work and we’ll great rich off it. AMAZING! Who can argue that they have not had the hottest commercials the last two years!?

So all this ranting brings me to… dant dana daaaaaaa…

My most liked and least liked commercial from this year’s big game.

Least Liked:
My least liked commercial this year was by far the Tim Tebow family commercial. There was a huge uproar over how Tim Tebow made a pro-life commercial tackling the unspeakable abortion topic yet when it airs early in the first quarter all you get is this dude tackling his matter just for her to bounce back up and talk about the importance of family.. FAIL!

Most Liked:
My favorite commercial this year hands down goes to Doritos and the clip of the woman introducing her son to her date. Words won’t even do it justice so just watch the clip below and enjoy.  Great job Doritos, keep up the good work!

  1. Thanks! .. Go Daddy is worse to me then the cave-man. I start to feel bad for them after a while. Go Daddy just has no point to anything they do. Danika Patrick must be desperate for attention because she was awful in the commercials. Doritos seemed to have pull far ahead and I hope they continue to get ideas from fans and “normal” people. What’s your blog?

    • Go Daddy definitely represents a total lack of creativity or originality in everything they do. I really enjoyed the Bud Light auto-tune as well. :)

      For some reason my blog doesn’t link up…working on fixing it! It’s a sports blog http://www.samanthajflynn.wordpress.com

  2. Awesome post! I posted a similar one :-) I think Doritos is right on with their target audience. They are producing awesome commercials lately!

    I’m NOT a fan of the Go Daddy commercials. I’ve heard it all day “you know something wrong when people are saying you’re doing sexy, wrong” I think they’re very cave-man esque. Danica Patrick isn’t doing herself any favors either!

  1. No trackbacks yet.
