Welcome to the January 24, 2014 Post Game Show for Mojo Friday!
Our poll today asks about your favorite all time Super Bowl commercial, so vote below!
I love the Super Bowl commercials. The game itself is not often a very good one, although this upcoming game promises the spectacle of the #1 offense against the #1 defense. Of course, that didn't necessarily work to the Patriots advantage when they occupied that lofty offensive position. Oh well. It also promises a game in hopefully foul weather ... appropriate for all those "fans for a day" who tend to show up on Super Bowl Sunday. I hope it's miserable out there!
For me, I remember most the Apple 1984 commercial. Stark. Black and white. And so dramatically different from anything else of the time. It set the benchmark for being creative on Super Bowl Sunday I think ... and opened up the flood gates to creativity, humor and, well, lack of both also!
I've borrowed this list from CBS, The Top 10 Most Viral Superbowl Commercials of all time... which one is your all time favorite? Here's their list, with links, so you can watch those you may not remember!
10. "1984" (Apple)
9. "Love Hurts" (Pepsi Max - Crash the Super Bowl 2011)
8. "Free Doritos" (Doritos - Crash the Super Bowl 2009)
7."Ozzy and Bieber" (2011, Best Buy)
6. E*Trade Baby 2009 (E*Trade)
5. "Imported from Detroit" (2011, Chrysler)
4. E*Trade Super Bowl Commercial 2010 (E*Trade)
3. "Pug Attack" (Doritos - Crash the Super Bowl 2011)
2. "Casket" (Doritos - Crash the Super Bowl 2010)
1. "The Force" Volkswagen (2011)
