Not- So Super Bowl

Watching the Super Bowl at a house with 35 girls has probably been one of the most irritating experiences of my life. Not that I'm that interested in football, but being the Advertising Major that I am, I actually want to be able to watch the commercials! Everytime a commercial comes on, everyone gets chatty. Don't they know that the commercials are the best part of the superbowl? I guess not everyone appreciates world famous, million dollar creativity.

With that, although they are indeed million dollar ad spots, overall I have not been impressed with the ads so far. Of course the Budweiser commercials have been pretty funny, but for example, the one with the cartoon Pandas was just nothing special.(I can't even remember what the ad was for) I did however enjoy the Coke ad with the Macy's Day Parade floats chasing after the bottle, and Charlie Brown ending up with it. It was a pretty simple idea without any dialogue, but to me it was effective.

Now that the Giants have finally made a touchdown I feel the need to end this blog. See everyone tomorrow!
