This [Snickers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snickers-luck-shop) Super Bowl Ad was voted the [funniest commercial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/angel-soft-super-bowl) 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.
