Wow! I thought last year’s Superbowl was pretty spectacular but this one had me jumping up and down in front of my tv (thankfully, we live in the country and have no neighbours close enough to care or be alarmed by my woo hoo’ing). As a Pittsburgh fan, I am very happy that they won but sad for Arizona too as I always like a good cinderella team. One of the sports analysts mentioned at the beginning of the game, Arizona has a good story but Pittsburgh has a good team – I don’t think anyone thought that the game would be that close.
So now I have been getting caught up on the Superbowl ads that we did not get a chance to see in Canada. I have to say that my favourite is the “Angry Troy” ad for Coke. It is a take off of the original Coke advert with Mean Joe Green.
It helps that I am a big Troy Polamalu fan anyways. You can see Troy talking about the making of the video here if you are interested.
I also really got a kick out of Alec Baldwin in his “because we’re aliens and that’s how we roll” role in this ad. Hehehe…
And finally, my job sucks so much I have a moose’s butt in my face (hey, haven’t we all felt like this about our jobs every once and a while?).
Hope everyone enjoyed the game as much as I did!
Love the Baldwin ad – too bad we can’t get that hulu mind-melting thing here in Canada.
