Superbowl ads were funny again

The funniest ad that came up during the Super Bowl was the Dalmatian dog that was training the horse. The ad had it set up that it was with a horse that was rejected and during the course of the next 12 months you have the gal training the Clydesdale horse with horse pulling shovel bails of hay with the Dalmatian sitting on top. The horse was pulling railroad cars and the horse was working out with the Dalmatian and then finally in the next year in the spot we have a shot of the horse making the team and the Del high fiving the horse. The Dalmatian my all time favorite animal. Then there the dude with the flame commercial that was trying to impress the girl in the Doritos commercial and he's talking with the girl and impressing her and blowing flames and lighting the candles and making the mood romantic and then all of a sudden out of no where you get this big whoosh of flame heating everybody up and the girl turns into a burned piece of toast real quick. The there was another Doritos ad setting up a Doritos trap waiting for a mouse and then we get a shot of a guy in a big mouse suit breaking down the entire wall and then capturing the guy. Super Bowl ads are expensive and they have to make the impression so they stick. The Audi commercial we had a rich type who was in a bed and you had the front grill of an older car in the foot of his bed with oil at the foot of the bed and his hand had oil on it and he woke up screaming looking at all of this and then they cut to the new Audi out in front with the announcer saying, "old owners have met his match". Fox ran a spot with a myspace.com ad where you could see all the Super Bowl commercials as well. Their interesting ads that made their make on a wildly interesting game from start to finish. When Brady got the Pats in the end zone and got New England the lead with just under three minutes left I thought just the way that Eli Manning was moving the Giants you got this feeling something was going to happen. So if fans were up there watching just for the ads they got a special bonus to laugh at the spots because they were funny and they watched one of the most entertaining Super Bowls of all time.
