Super Party Bets, Part 9

And what about the ads? The best roundup I've found so far was on abc.com. Excerpts:


  • Known advertisers include FedEx, General Motors, GoDaddy.com, Pepsi, Taco Bell, Coke, Snapple.
  • Celebrities include Kevin Federline (Nationwide Insurannce), Jay-Z, Jessica Simpson, and racecar drivers Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Danica Patrick. Also, Paris Hilton, L.L. Cool J and Martha Stewart will be in a single NFL Network ad.
  • "Amateurs" got in the act this year by creating their own commercials for contests set up by Doritos, Chevrolet, and the NFL.

      So what questions do these facts inspire? First beverage in an ad? First singer? Color of first car?

My spouse and I stumbled over here by a different page and thought I should check things out. I like what I see so now i am following you. Look forward to finding out about your web page again.

Hi there just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the images aren't loading correctly. I'm not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I've tried it in two different web browsers and both show the same outcome.
