    Well unfortunately I was babysitting drunk Patriot fans so I didn't get to see all the commercials. Besides some of the movie commericals (I seem to like most movie commercials, and I really liked the ones for Troy and Van Helsing, my favorite by far was the Budweiser referee commercial, with the "I was born a donkey" one just a bit behind. I didn't get to see the Simpsons one and only part of the Lay's grandparents battle royale commercial though so my list of candidates is somewhat incomplete.

    worst. super bowl. commericals. ever.


    1 MAYBE 2 decent spots, the rest were crap, there isn't a Super Bowl that I can remeber that had such lousy spots with half of them being old commericals I've seen before.

    I liked the "Tomorrow" one, but yeah... it was a pretty bad year.

    What does everybody think of those new Dodges?

    That little puny ass car was pretty weak and that car with the hemi that went faster than sound is just a station wagon. That car with the power hard top was pretty sweet, though...

    How can Pepsi get away with suggesting that their product is responsible for the genius of Jimi Hendrix? And I guess Einstein read E=mc2 off the side of a Pepsi bottle.

    Stupid, arrogant commercial.

    The premise of the Pepsi commercial was pretty cool, but I highly doubt that a black kid in the 50's could afford a brand new guitar. Maybe if the Pepsi machine had been in front of a pawn shop. :D

    Ok, for your benefit, and the benefit of the human race as a whole.. i'm going to assume you know the commercial was a joke.

    Yeah. At least they got his name right.

    Jimi's first guitar was sure as hell not a telecaster, nor did he buy it from a pawn shop.

    But historical accuracy wasn't the point. The premise made the joke possible.

    The SB Commercials overall sucked this year...The only good, I thought, were the following:

    1) Bud Light or Bud: Horse farting with girl holding the candle...:D

    2) Bud: Coach yelling at referee, wife yelling at referee...:D

    Was it? It didn't look like a joke to me. Yeah, "Purple Haze" on the accordian was funny, but the rest of the commercial read like "Look what the world would have missed out on if not for Pepsi."

    The new Mopars are awesome, perhaps I convince my wife to trade her Volvo T5 wagon for that Magnum station wagon?

    With the Hendrix commercial, why was a telecaster even in the commercial? I think he is quoted as saying that he didn't like the range of sounds on teles. Maybe it is a small detail, but I think a lot of people noticed that.

    To nit pick like that is really just asinine.

    I'm probably the biggest Hendrix fan I know, and it doesn't bother me one bit.. I see what they were trying to do, and they did it well.

    Plus, Jimi's first electric guitar was an eyesore.. and he didn't get it until his late teens..

    His first guitar ever was some kind of weird acoustic.. it was square shaped I believe.. I don't quite remember if he got it when he was eleven.

    But that's beside the point, funny commercial.. no dumb pop stars.. good enough for me.
