I really never expected that watching the Super Bowl would coincide with a blog post, but then again I never expected to see such a powerful, and talked about, ad to come on the heels of an power outage delay and a just-short comeback.
I’m not much for parties or gatherings during the game (unless, of course, my favorite team is participating). And I am not one who will tune in for the commercials. Thanks to the Internet I can replay those I missed with only a few keystrokes. So what was turning into a rout early on had me catching up on some work with the game as a background noise.
The game got interesting, but other duties called me away and I missed perhaps (at least in my circle of friends) THE commercial of the evening. But a few clicks later (and a full newsfeed talking about it) I was able to view it. Pretty powerful stuff, and a great shout-out to U.S. agriculture on one of the biggest stages.
Did you see the ad live? And what were your impressions?
I saw the ad live and it was very powerful! Was at a Super Bowl party and the whole room went silent when this ad came on…people were captivated.
