Nah...it sucked. Two of the teams I hate the most played...😛

BUT, I was glad to see PFM get a win for what might SHOULD be his final game. (and I was thrilled to see SuperCam get his ass kicked for 60 minutes)

Definitely for the bolded part. I don't really care for either team, but thought it was a decent game.

And the Doritos ad was definitely the best. Loved the Deathwish coffee add.

The Bud adds sucked.
 
Commercials sucked, the game sucked, at least Peyton won.

To elaborate, the Doritos baby commercial and the guacamole commercial were pretty good, and the Budweiser drunk driving one was impactful I guess, but literally everything else I saw was annoying or bad or stupid. How do people like the Kevin Hart commercial so much?? It was.... dumb, an over-the-top cliche! Guess I'm biased because Hart annoys me, even being from Philly I can't appreciate his comedy. Then the hot dog commercial was just weird, plus the fucking "rubber baby buggy bumper monkey" thing that is only popular BECAUSE it's so weird. I do remember a post-2000 time when some of these were actually pretty good, but for a solid streak they've been lame lame lame. And no new Settlers commercial?? The first 3 are good, I'll settle for some more Jebidiah over this rubbish. /2016 SB anti-commercial rant

edit: that "settle" reference was completely accidental haha

That reference to the blue/black/white/gold dress in the guacamole ad was pretty good and I cracked up at the Doritos/ultrasound ad but my pregnant wife was not amused in the slightest!

Helen Mirren going off on drunk driving while taking a sip of Budweiser later was a bit odd. I'd think she would be smarter than to ever drink a Bud, but I imagine it wasn't to begin with 😛

I don't think she actually ever took a sip - just held up the bottle like she was about to when the commercial ended
 
The Pokemon commercial made me laugh so hard I cried. The way it started it was like "what is this Reebok? A sports drink?" And it ends with Pokemon. Just amazingly over the top.
 
Best-Doritos baby
Worst-Prius chase

Honorable mention for worst "commercial"- Payton Manning shaking papa johns hand immediately after the clock ran out and plugging Budweiser profusely.

Lots of good ones, even some very very funny ones.

My fav, was the Audi R8. Liked them for years, but that was bad ass. Very good commercial.
 
I can't think of any other annual event that can condense so much corporate shilling into 3 and 1/2 hours.
 
My wife loved the sheep singing Queen and the dog talking.

That one was classic, just a bit overshadowed by the baby doritos one.

I was looking forward to the budweiser clysdales ones but didn't see one, maybe I missed em.

i suppose if I cared about the Prius, I would have enjoyed that commercial. I guess I think the Prius is like irritable bowel syndrome, I'll never like those commercials, either.

I liked the Audi R8 commercial, more...although I know I'll never be able to buy an R8.
