Coffee Break with Liz and Kate

Let’s face it, for some of us, (ahem…Liz) the best part of Super Bowl Sunday has nothing to do with watching big men in tight spandex pants running around trying steal a little brown ball from each other. The highlight, for many, comes in feasting on the Super Bowl food and laughing at the clever commercials. I’ll address that whole food topic on Thursday with a few Super Bowl worthy food ideas. (I’ve found some yummy recipes that I’ll be serving this year.)

Today, however, I thought I’d share some of my all time favorite Super Bowl commercials, you know, to get you all pepped up for the game.

Oh Betty…you left me “Snickering” for days.

We know who’s in charge at this house.

Can anyone really resist the aroma of Planters Peanuts?

Or the aroma of Old Spice?

Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, and a Big Mac. Need I say more?

Who can forget these very vocal frogs from 1995?

Here’s an oldie that’s sure to bring on a bout of nostalgia. Joe Namath and Farrah Fawett and their Noxema ad.

And last but not least, here’s Mean Joe Greene being cheered up by a Coke. Now that’s my kind of guy. (Thanks Jim for reminding me of this one )

Hope you enjoyed this look back at some of my favorite Super Bowl ads. I can’t wait to see what they come up with this year. How about you? What’s your favorite part of Super Bowl Sunday?
