TV ads are generally intermissions for people watching TV. But, this isn't true with Super Bowl ads. More than 70 percent of people look at Super Bowl commercials as a form of entertainment.  After the game, people are interested in the rank of commercials and go into in-depth analysis to understand why. In fact, these Super Bowl commercials are now released a week before, and the good ones have a chance to go viral. On the marketer's side, the success and failure of these ads become a precious source of information for the advertising world. For the 26th consecutive year, USA Today's AD Meter reached out to consumers to vote for their favorite Super Bowl commercials. This online audience of 6,272 preregistered panelists voted from across the country. Result? Budweiser's "Puppy Love" for Super Bowl 2014, which is a continuation of the company's highly-praised ad from last year "Brotherhood," played by actor Don Jeanes. There are no words but it delivers good messages along with a sweet back-ground music. The Super Bowl game featured nearly 50 commercials that cost advertisers a record $4 million per 30-second slot for airtime, which was expected to be watched by up to 110 million viewers.The Super Bowl is literally a showdown for marketing giants where they use their best and newest ideas to communicate something more than a simple product.

 
On Sunday, an estimated 110 million people will be glued to the television for Super Bowl XLVIII. To put this in perspective, that is roughly everyone in the top five most populous states (California, Texas, New York, Illinois and Pennsylvania) watching NFL's most coveted game, according to the most recent Census data.
