My Top 5 Super Bowl Ads

Even though I am a sports fan, professional football and basketball aren’t exactly my favorite. I’m more of a college sports girl, when it comes to the major sports. I don’t claim any team or fandom. I just look for competitive and entertaining games. That’s all I was hoping for from Super Bowl XLVII. For a while, I didn’t think we were going to get a good game, then the lights went out at the Superdome and momentum shifted, making it exciting right down to the final 4 seconds! Congrats to the Baltimore Ravens!
Now, I took my bathroom breaks, and other absences from the TV during the game. I wasn’t going to miss any of the commercials. They’re a big reason a lot of people even bother tuning in.
Here are my Top 5, in no particular order!
1. NFL, Deion Sanders as Leon Sandcastle
3. Tide, Miracle Stain
4. Taco Bell, Viva Young
Honorable Mention:
Pulls at your heart strings award: Jeep – “Whole Again”

Dishonorable Mention:
For grossing us all out: Go Daddy – Perfect Match

There were still a few others I enjoyed, such as Amy Flawless Poehler’s Best Buy ad, Calvin Klein’s eye candy for the ladies, and the Oreo whisper fight. But overall, I don’t think this year’s batch was all that great.
Which ads stood out the most to you?
