I read the following in the news this morning:
On the Monday following the Super Bowl,
an average of 6 percent of the workforce calls in sick. While it might be bad
for productivity, the Super Bowl is good for one thing: the antacid business.
Typically, antacid sales increase 20 percent the day after the game. How about
an estimated 14,500 tons of chips, 4,000 tons of popcorn and 8 million pounds
of guacamole? Is it any wonder so many people call in sick the next day?

They did use the Budweiser horses for one ad - pulling a load of beer into a town just after prohibition had been lifted. Good ad.
But I think the Budweiser folks have a new winner in one of their ads. A rescue dog, kind of scruffy looking cute little guy, is named Weego. And when anyone calls him, like "Here, Weego", he runs and brings them a beer. He even rolls a keg in for a group.
This dog is actually darn cute and a real
rescue dog. Bud Light also calls to support rescue dogs at the end of the ad.

And how about Madonna's half time show? Oh, you mean that was supposed to be good? I guess I missed the good part. And I know I missed M.I.A, a guest performer, flipping everyone off during one of the songs. Well, I missed Janet Jackson's costume malfunction eight years ago too.
