    I didn’t think I’d see a time where people would be thrilled over an advertisement. This was the norm four years ago and no one was jubilant.

          I think the Superbowl is some sports game thing in the US. Probably football.

      There were dozens and dozens of TV ads back in the day that found their way into pop culture.

      “Where’s the beef!”

      Budweiser frogs

      Wasssuuuppp!

      Old Spice’s “The Man Your Man Could Smell Like,”

      The Crying Indian

      I could go on all afternoon.
