Power outage at the Super Bowl

The 49ers were asleep for the entire first half of the game.  We all know that the Silicon Valley crowd would be rooting for San Francisco.  It’s a good bet that during the half time show those wise guy nerds on Technology Drive in San Jose quickly devised a virus that would shut down the power feed to the Super Dome.

Their theory was that the 49ers might wake up.  But alas, the Ravens were too powerful to stop.  A galant effort by the nerds.

Jerry Seinfeld Super Bowl Commercial

This was clearly the best commercial on the Super Bowl

In the newly released extended spot, Seinfeld lusts after the 2012 Acura NSX very badly, but is told he is the second person on the waiting list. So he launches an extremely intensive campaign to bribe the man who is the first one on the list to give him his spot. Seinfeld’s tactics include: cash, use of the Soup Nazi (“I own all the characters”), small talk with the omelet guy, stand-up at the man’s house, re-enacting reality TV using sock-puppets, showing the man an alien, and much much more.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Super Bowl ad without a big celebrity twist at the end.
