Bowl Me Over
Superbowl Sunday is huge in more ways than one. It is the second-largest day for U.S. food consumption after Thanksgiving and depending on who’s playing, the most watched American television broadcast. The Superbowl airs this Sunday and while my team will not be participating once again, I will nonetheless tune in if only to view the commercials. Anyone willing to dole out three million dollars for a 30 second spot to advertise their product has my undivided attention.
There will be the old standbys like Budweiser and the Clydesdales, Pepsi and Doritos but there will sure to be some newer, no doubt clever commercials to entertain the over one hundred million viewers expected to tune in.
Of course the commercials are being kept top secret so we can only surmise what they may be. I would like to see Wikileaks founder Julian Assange portray the Little Dutch Boy sticking his finger in that dyke to stop that leak while pushing paint of course. Charlie Sheen would be perfection in pitching Lays and Coke (chips and pop for my PG readers). Octomom would make for good subliminal advertising for the Volkswagen Rabbit. Use your imagination people.
