Is the best part of the Super Bowl the commercials?

Beautiful woman eating nacho chips, drinking soda and beers, dancing half-naked – no, not your girlfriend on the couch beside you, I’m talking about ads. Every year companies spend millions of dollars on Super Bowl ads. Money they could simply save, and pass the savings on to the customer. Instead, they spend 2.5 million dollars and get a 30-second advertisement during The Big Game. They spend another half million just producing the ad for The Big Game. Some music or action star gets trapped on an escalator and can’t reach their favorite can of soda – yeah, thanks for raising the cost of my car insurance to pay for that.

I like Mean Joe Greene as much as you. But not enough to pay for it.
