Super (Animal) Bowl

Holy crap, beyond the fact that after three boring-ass quarters, the Super Bowl actually got good. I thought the whole night was going to be spent hating on Sheri because she dared cheer on the Steelers when most of the people in the room were Bengals fans (foolish girl). Other than that, the one thing the group could not stop fixating on was how bad the commercials were this year. Even when watching them in 3D (as pictured with Dboy and Ashley), they still stunk.

And bad they were, because they all followed the same format ... Make some dumb joke, throw in an animal.

You think I am kidding? At one point in the fourth quarter, we all laughed at the number of animals in a particular commercial that I got out paper and we all started naming the various species. Yes, you can expect some dogs, cats and monkeys (Kelly's favorites) for sure, but crap on a stick, check out this list!:

Koala Bear
Rhino
Warthog
Turtle
Dragonfly
Ladybug
Gecko
Monkey
Dog
Cat
Bees
Horses
Giraffe
Dolphin
Goldfish
Rabbit
Grasshopper
Pigeon
Ostrich
Water Buffalo
Moose
Crow
Lizard
Cow
Chicken
Snake
Cheetah (we decided to count the Cheetos mascot because the list was just too funny without it)
Tiger (Tony the Tiger, for same reason above)

So there you have it, a Noah's Ark of commercial animals. And not one solid commercial came out of it. Sad.
