This Snickers Super Bowl Ad was voted the funniest commercial to run during the game, and with good reason. Any commercial that has Betty White running around a field with a bunch of guys 50 years younger playing tackle football is comedic gold.
I have incredible respect for Ms. White who, at 88-years-old, can even run at all, never mind being thrown to the ground (though I’m pretty sure that’s not her).
The Snickers Super Bowl commercial definitely made me LOL.
