First of all, congratulations to the Green Bay Packers and their biggest fan in the state of Texas, my nephew James, on the Super Bowl win last night. I think somewhere in Lubbock my nephew was having a "sports cry". No, we don't know why he's a Packers fan, but I'll give him credit, he's been a Packers fan since he was about 5 years old (he's 20 now). The last time they won the Super Bowl he was 7.

I know a lot of my readers are not as big into sports as I am, but, even my friends who hate sports enjoy the commercials during the Super Bowl. I thought I would post some of my favorite ones from last night.
Volkswagen Using "the Force":
(yes, I posted this one last Friday, but it is still great. And it was my favorite one of the night!) Go here to read an article and see a video about the kid who played Darth Vader!
Best Buy Bieber Fever:
(this made me laugh. Gotta give Justin Bieber "props" for making fun of himself!)
Doritos Pug Attack:
(what can I say, I love pugs!!) :)
Bridgestone Carma:
Fast and Furious 5 Trailer:
(okay, it's not a "real" Super Bowl commercial, but I did enjoy this one! Um...Paul Walker and Vin Diesel back together again. It never gets old!) ;) I'm already planning a Girls Night Out to see that movie in April! Who wants to come along? :)

I also wanted to post a few of my favorite Super Bowl commercials from over the past few years.
Streaker:
Etrade Baby:
(I love these commercials!)
Clydesdale Donkey:
On the commercials, I found that I liked several of them while a lot of people complained. I think one of my favorite ones was the VW/Darth Vader one. I also liked the 2nd one with Eminem. I couldn't tell at first if it was a commercial for Detroit in general, or just for Chrysler (kidding), however I thought it was pretty classy. Speaking of Eminem, I thought the 1st one(the tea commercial) was pretty spot-on and I laughed pretty hard when "claymation Eminem" was in the studio and they had to edit most of it out. Honorable mentions for the Doritos/pug and Bridgestone/beaver ones-quite funny!

OH! I almost forgot, I wanna see "Fast 5" as well. Like I said last night, "I've seen the previous 17(or however many) Fast & Furious movies, why stop now??"

I missed a lot of those commercials, but I loved the VW one! Of course I'm a VW driver myself...

I loved the Darth commercial, it was by far my favorite! I can't wait to see the FF5, ah Vin, it's been too long! Hope you have a great week and I hear from you. We need to chat, it's been to long! ♥ BJ
ReplyDeleteFrom one cheesehead to another, congratulations to James. Be sure to tell him that here in Wisconsin we don't really wear our cheese, we eat it. LOL (Actually, I guess they do at Lam. Field)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on the tornado cake. Wasn't that awesome!
The pug one was funny. And the VW beetle. But I got sort of distracted in the 2nd half and missed a BUNCH. Thanks for sharing these so I could see them! :)
