Number 1, Budweiser takes the top prize for the best commercial on this year’s Super Bowl with its Bud-Lite spot. Of the 97.5 million viewers this year, a Super Bowl record, the majority of viewers are male, beer-drinking individuals who love football. This is an audience tailored-made for Budweiser. Although this is not an epic TV commercial such as the original ’1984‘ by Apple Computer, it was a hit with the target audience.

Number 2, FedEx created a wild TV commercial for this years Super Bowl. It features an office that decides to use carrier pigeons to deliver all of their packages. However, larger packages require larger birds. Visually, the spot is well directed. The FedEx website landing page for this commercial could have been a lot more creative. Tomorrow, we will feature the number one Super Bowl XLII commercial.
Super Bowl XLII Commercials: Number 3 - Budweiser

Number 3, Budweiser is the top dog (no pun intended) when it comes to Super Bowl advertising. They were the only advertiser to run seven commercials during the event this year. And at 2.7 million dollars per 30 second spot, Budweiser takes the Super Bowl audience seriously. Fortunately, there was a record audience to watch the New York Giants defeat the New England Patriots.
One would expect that any company who spends those kind of dollars on one event would create a memorable commercial. Budweiser went back to the well and produced a spot featuring the Clydesdale horses. Using the ‘Rocky’ theme song, the storyline revolved around a horse that didn’t make the cut, then was trained for a year by a Dalmatian. Of course, the horse made the team the following year. It was one of the few Super Bowl commercials that actually told a positive and uplifting story.

Number 4, Tide developed a creative Super Bowl commercial and website for their Tide-to-Go product. The commercial starts with a basic job interview. However, the employer cannot hear what the candidate is saying because a stain on the candidate’s shirt is speaking at the same time and interrupting the whole interview process.
I found this spot to very funny and original. It is one of the best Super Bowl commercials this year in featuring the product’s main benefit, which is to remove stains. As a theme, ‘Silence the stain instantly’ could be better, but there is a great website tie-in for the product as well.

The Super Bowl is over and the New York Giants have pulled off one of the greatest upsets in football history. There was also another competition between companies that produced the best commercial that ran during the Super Bowl. Each spot spent around 2.7 million dollars for the 30 second placement. USAToday has the 2008 ad-meter ratings, and over the next 5 days I will give my humble opinion on the the top 5 most creative and memorable Super Bowl commercials for 2008.
Starting at number 5, Bridgestone created a terrific spot featuring screaming animals and people reacting to impending doom for a squirrel in the middle of road. Because the car has Bridgestone tires, the driver is able to easily maneuver around the animal. Great brand identity featuring the product in use. I especially liked the tiny insect scream.

Honda has created a Rube Goldberg style two-minute commercial for the new Honda Accord. The commercial is ground-breaking because it was shot in real-time, in one take. Supposedly, it took several weeks to produce and 606 takes to get the one perfect take, all at a cost of 6 million dollars. Everything shown in the commercial is from two real automobiles that were disassembled and not from 3D graphic animation. This spot is currently being shown on British television and, through viral marketing, making its way through email boxes in the US.
