The Best of the Best: Super Bowl Commercials

Let's face it. I haven't watched an NFL football game all year and I didn't start yesterday either. I'm not a big fan of Madonna, so that left me with the commercials, which in my opinion, is the best part anyway. So here are a few of my faves.....

Rounding out the #1 spot is Clint Eastwood's narration of Chrysler's "Halftime in America". First of all....no one does it like Clint. And second, nothing like a real American story of the struggles we share to tug at the heartstrings. Very classy.

I also have to give much love to Volkswagen. As a former VW owner, I speak from the heart. I think I love their marketing almost as much as I love their cars! Great job, once again!

And even though Edward Cullen drove a Volvo, not an Audi, I still liked this one. I know my fellow Twilight fans also will appreciate it!

I Love M&Ms and we've been known to listen to a little LMFAO in this house (at least Jack and me), so this was a perfect match.  Although, Ms.Brown isn't exactly a "new character", I remember when brown was just a regular color in the M&M pack. It did make me wanna dance...and eat some M&Ms.
