Best Superbowl Commercials

Although I am not the biggest football fan, I always make some time to watch the Super Bowl each year. I wasn't a supporter of either of the two teams playing today (but I'm glad the Giants won) so it wasn't the game itself that drew in my attention. The annual Super Bowl commercials are what I'm most interested in. This year several products stood out in my mind with their extremely clever, greatly entertaining commercials. They are as follows:

5. Pepsi- Sending Justin Timberlake soaring through the air with each sip of a Pepsi is a pretty interesting concept. I especially enjoyed the part where he was nailed by a flying plasma television.
4. Bud Light- There were numerous Bud Light comercials premiering throughout the game. My favorite would have to be the "fire breathing" one. Who knew that Bud Light once gave you the ability to breathe fire? Cats beware.
3. Doritos- Oh my God! How hilarious was it when that gigantic mouse broke through the wall and tackled the guy with the bag of Doritos. Priceless.
2. Bridgestone- I guess I never realized how loud squirrels could scream. This commercial really made me laugh, especially when the screaming woman was juxtaposed against the squirrel.
1. Planters- The lady with the unibrow and warts could definitely be defined as disgusting. Perhaps using Planters nuts as a perfume would be a good way for her to attract some much needed attention. I have to admit, I find it hard to say no to some good cashews...
