Super Bowl is great and so are Super Bowl commercials. When you live in Europe like me, you can’t watch it live anyway because of the time difference and watching it later is not the same thing. But you can watch and enjoy the advertising which is crème de la crème. No wonder, the average cost of a 30-second commercial during the Super Bowl is around $4.5 million and the average duration of these here is around 1 minute each.

The Super Bowl LII presented by the National Football League (NFL) was on Sunday, 4 Februar 2018 with the Philadelphia Eagles winning over the New England Patriots. I watched the commercials on Monday and put ten of them in this video. They are my favorites. Sure, everybody has its own taste but that’s the point: I realized that I actually didn’t like the top ten lists of the media but prefered also one or two of the lesser celebrated ads.

So here we go:

1. Tourism Australia with “Crocodile Dundee”, featuring Chris Hemsworth and Danny McBride
2. Doritos Blaze vs. Mountain Dew Ice featuring Peter Dinklage and Morgan Freeman
3. M&M’s with “Human” featuring Danny DeVito
4. Budweiser with “Stand By You”
5. Jeep with “Jurassic Park” featuring Jeff Goldblum
6. Michelob Ultra with “The Perfect Fit” featuring Chris Pratt
7. Ram Trucks with “Icelandic Vikings”
8. Kia Stinger with “Forever young" featuring Steven Tyler
9. NFL with “Dirty Dancing” featuring Odell Beckham Jr. and Eli Manning
10. Toyota with “One Team”

And one more because I couldn’t resist:
11. Tide, “It’s a Tide Ad” featuring David Harbour

I hope you enjoy them as I did. Tell me in the comments, which one of these commercials is your #1?
