Baltimore couldn’t be happier that the Steelers were defeated in the Super Bowl by the Packers. But if you need another smile this morning, here are my top five Super Bowl Ads from Sunday’s big game.
1. The Force – Volkswagen’s commercial featuring a kid dressed as Darth Vadar has to be my favorite. The video has gone viral and was watched millions of times before the Super Bowl even aired. It’s my number one.
2. NFL Best Fans – Number two isn’t a funny commercial, but one I really enjoyed. The commercial features various famous characters from their respected TV shows wearing NFL gear. I received a PR email from the NFL about the ad and the email said it featured 180 changes in the 60 seconds. Can you find them all?
3. Product Placement – You figured Bud Light would have one in the top five. My favorite of the Bud Light ads was called product placement and featured Bud Light products showing up in a movie scene.
4. The Best Part – This one gets filed under the “awkward and uncomfortable” category. The commercial is for Doritos and features a co-worker finishing what he calls “the best part” of his fellow co-worker’s lunch time snack.
5. Release the Hounds – I may have been the only one at my Super Bowl party that like this one, but I don’t care. “Release the Hounds” is an Audi commercial about escaping a luxury prison.
So there are my favorite Super Bowl commercials. What are yours?

My favorite was actually the House take off on the Mean Joe Green Pepsi commercial. One of the few I laughed at. i think the commercials are starting to be crushed under all the hype they get year after year. too much expectation to live up to.
I agree with that. Last year was the first Super Bowl I noticed a decline in the commercials. I feel like in the mid-90's they were all can't miss. Now you get a few to laugh at.
you also were a kid in the nineties.
…an ethiopian looking one to boot.
Haha. Going to eat some cookie dough.
…in elementary school. Everything was awesome back then. On Mon, Feb 7, 2011 at 12:11 PM, Matt Sadler <sadlermr@gmail.com> wrote: you also were a kid in the nineties.

I missed this one during the broadcast, but watched it this morning. Good stuff. YouTube has a channel dedicated to all the SB commercials.
I liked the Doritos one as well where the guy sprinkles Dorito crumbs on everything, and the objects come back to life. The ending is hilarious IMO.

That was a good one too. An honorable mention.

Two of favorites were the monkey parking the cars and dog watcher serving beer.
The monkey parking the cars was pretty good. I enjoyed that one myself.
The one with the monkeys was good too.
I liked the one where the Three Stooges kidnapped the baby only to have Larry get hit on the head by a falling piano and die. Moe & Curly save the day when Mrs. Magillicuty knows whose baby it is they kidnapped and she gets it and gives it back to Bud Abbott which makes Harpo Marx so happy he blows his horn.
