1 Second Super Bowl Ads

...now, I am not in any way a fan of the product in question (beer you can see through is no beer at all!), however, I just have to tip my hat to the Miller folks for this brilliant ad campaign (plus, I like the guy they use, funny dude):

They're buying only local airtime, not national airtime, so the NFL can't do anything to stop them, either. Genius.

Oh, no doubt, as I pointed out in the original post, I don't even consider the horse pee with bubbles in it that they bottle to be anything resembling BEER.



However, great ad campaign!

Brilliant! Good on Miller. Still cost them $100,000 dollars to show each though.

Nice!! I like all the commercials that feature that guy. The one where people call in to ask if they're living the high life is the best.

I don't have a problem with High Life - when I'm drinking on the cheap I'll drink it. I love drinking "good" beer, don't get me wrong, but if you don't want to spend more than $4 on a six-pack, you can't do much better

Miller Genuine Draft isn't the worst beer I've ever tried.
