For as long as I can remember the Super Bowl was about football, and of course the 2.5 million dollar commercials. However, the past few years have been of dissapointment, the football games and commercials. In hopes of a new year, and possibly new commericals I was hopeful for all of this hype as a turn around for the once famous 30 second spot during the Super Bowl.
While eating my riblets and sipping on a Mountain Dew watching the Colts burry the Bears, I was not entertained by the commercials once again. Nonetheless, there were a few in which I manged to laugh outloud to.
It just goes to show that "normal" people, like you and me, who have just as creative ideas as those making six figure salaries can create a commercial and connect with people. Doritos was one of those companies who took the challenge into the public, and produced a quite entertaining commercial. Chevy also produced a car commercial, which was the college student winner, and I think that was my favorite of them all. But I have to give credit to the dot.com website, Career Builders.com, for their creative comparison of "surviving the work week." Sometimes you just have to go out to that far limb, and I think that is what they did. They succeeded in me being anbe to remember the name of the site, as well as what the slogan was. So props to them.
Regardless of the poor commercials, I was still happy that the Colts finally won a SuperBowl, that the first African Amercian NFL coach has won a SuperBowl and we are making strides as to take our own peers creativity and put it to the test during one of the most watched hours of television.
