Best Super Bowl XLV Commercial: NFL’s “Best. Fans. Ever.” Ad

February 7, 2011 By 2 Comments

And the award for best commercial from Super Bowl XLV goes to…

The NFL.

That’s right, the one entity that did not really need to advertise anything – heck, what could be a better advertisement than the great game on the field that we got? – hit the biggest home run of the night with its “Best. Fans. Ever.” ad.

Immediately after the ad ran, my Twitter feed blew up with people saying it was great. I concurred.

The spot features no less than 48 television celebrities from 20 of America’s favorite shows, along with all 32 NFL teams.

The NFL released a second version of the spot after the game ended, creating a side-by-side version in which they dropped 180 visual changes, or Easter Eggs, into the new video. Can you spot them all?
