This year’s Superbowl was exciting, so maybe that is why the ads didn’t stand out so much? Some of the ads were good… but far too… too reserved for the superbowl.
Personally, I always love ads that emphasize male distinctiveness… like the guy who hides a six pack Budweiser in a cheese wheel for his friends at a wine and cheese party! However, nothing came close to the ‘magic refrigerator’ of superbowl past… which is a ‘classic.’
‘Trojan Will’ always makes me laugh… this time as ‘Jackie Moon” in a collection of outakes for Budweiser. If you haven’t seen them… Check this out!
