## Story

Super Bowl ads aren't just an afterthought of the Big Game but considered a main attraction. We chose our favorite ads from the past 10 years to share with you. Which ones were your favorite?

**2005 -** Heineken Beer, Brad Pitt and The Rolling Stones, what’s not to love? Oh, did we mention David Fincher directed? **2006 -** Budweiser Our second beer brand pick.

This heartwarming Super Bowl commercial was one of the most memorable in the Anheuser-Busch vault. **2007 -** Late Show with David Letterman This one pins Oprah and David together on a couch and in love. It was short, sweet, to the point and shows the comedic chops of both.

**2008 -** NFL This short story of a commercial killed it with fans who tuned in. Here Ephraim Salaam talks about meeting oboe player Chester Pitts at the grocery store and convinces him to play football. **2009 -** Pepsi Max The famous “I’m good” ad was ranked most-watched during Super Bowl XLIV **2010 -** Snickers Two Words: Betty White Two more words: Abe Vigoda **2011 -** Chipotle This commercial is the most thought-provoking on our list, artfully spotlighting the effect industrial farming has on our planet.

**2012 -** Chrysler This nationalistic commercial features Clint Eastwood embodying half-time as a call to American morale during a slumped economy, specifically in Detroit’s Motor City. **2013 -** Samsung Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd star in this commercial, where they pitch the “Next Big Thing” to Samsung headquarters while poking fun at each other. **2014 -** Radio Shack Hulk Hogan, Dee Snider and Alf all guest star in the brand's self-aware ad and comical ad.

**2015 -** Locite For a glue brand, this wildly weird commercial kept viewers glued to their screen. It was strange, but it was memorable.
