What's with N.Americans and Super Bowl ads?

[method77]

Ok, I can relate to your american football agony. Same happens to all of us with different sports. South americans kill each other over football. It's a religion to them. Italians, Spanish, British, Greeks, Russian, Germans, Turkish, Iranian, Somalian, etc etc all get heart attacks while watching the final in their favorite sport but halftime means one thing for all of us. Bathroom. Piss. Shit. Some eat, others check on the baby that was screaming during the whole first period. You know, half time stuff.

All this time I couldn't stop noticing that N. Americans were talking about the halftime ads. What is the big deal about these ads except big corporations paying HUGE amounts for TV time? I mean, it's ads. Something that's on tv every day. 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Ads. ADVERTISMENT!

It's so important to you that UCLA did a research on the matter. Below is a pic that shows your brain during the ads with super activity when the FedEx ad came on.

Here is a link to the study.

Please don't take this the wrong way but I find this phenomenon fascinating. I really do. I also find fascinating the fact that Koreans get overexcited over ping pong (table tennis) but that's another discussion.

I'd like to hear your thoughts on this

Because the commercials this year were far better than the officiating.

[Lord_of_the_Dense]

That I will have to agree with.

its simply because advertisements during the superbowl are usually pure comic gold.

[Kooperman]

You've lost control of your own thread...sad :(

The major corporations save their best commercials for the superbowl - you can count on them to be humorous, spectacular or noteworthy because of the big budgets. It's the only time Americans as a whole watch or care for them :strumma:
