Super Bowl 46 Commercials

Years ago a commercial was a break in between playings during the Super Bowl, you could go to the bathroom quickly or refill your chip bowl without missing some of the big game. In recent years companies have taken advantage of the fact that millions of people would be watching this one game all at the same time, it was a great opportunity to advertise their products. Since all of these companies realized this, the competition to have the best commercial became a huge deal. Since then Super bowl commericals are known to be some of the best commercials of the year.  Now commercials are looked forward to just as much as the actual game, and you can see more people leaving in between downs to go to the bathroom or restock their food so that they don't miss the commercials. When you think of Super Bowl commercials you think of dancing and singing animals, and all those kinds of commical things. This year one commercial stood out among the rest, but the thing is it didn't contain a talking animal, or any laughing matter at all. This commercial was for McDonald's Hope Fund, it showed a small boys recovery after fighting Leukemia. I was surprised to see this commercial amongst the norm of funny commercials. It defiantly grabbed the views attention though and was one of the most remembered and favorite commercials for me at least. to see some of the best commercials from super bowl 46 click the link below.
