Super Bowl Ad Round Up: Heinz’s Adorable Wiener Dogs And More

Super Bowl 2016 season has sprung. For many of us, the commercials that fill the interwebs during the next few weeks are just as exciting as the football games.

Brands spend upwards of 5 million dollars for a 30 second spot on television with top broadcasters like NBC. For those companies, it’s well worth the price. Approximately 114 million viewers tuned into the Patriots vs. Seahawks football game last year, making it the most watched broadcast in U.S. television history.

Those kind of numbers might explain why Super Bowl ads are some of the most creative, demanding the blood, sweat and tears of brilliant minds in boardrooms.

This year’s line up is no exception. Here are some of the most entertaining Super Bowl 2016 ads released so far. Enjoy!

Heinz

Heinz just released their adorable ad featuring wiener dogs and condiments. It can’t get any cuter than a pack of Dachshunds dressed in hot dog bun outfits running in a field towards their Heinz condiment family. The commercial is part of a larger campaign called #MeetTheKetchups.

Colgate

Nothing beats an ad with a social cause to rally behind. Colgate’s commercial is a public service announcement encouraging viewers to turn off the taps when brushing their teeth. The toothpaste brand boasts this conscientious act will save approximately four gallons of water per brush.



Hyundai

Hyundai’s fun commercial shows two young women cruising the their suburban neighbourhood in an Elantra 2017. They are distracted by every man they pass who looks like the stunning Ryan Reynolds. Lucky for them though, just before they are about to crash into Ryan Reynolds walking his dogs across the street, they are saved by the car’s auto emergency brakes.

NFL

The NFL’s commercial “Super Bowl Babies” is a clever play on the statistic: Nine months after a Super Bowl victory, winning cities see a rise in births. A group of kids sing about their conception in various Super Bowl cities, set to the tune of Seal’s “Kiss From a Rose”.
