Commercials to look for in the 2015 Super Bowl
Some people watch the Super Bowl for the game, others watch it for the halftime show, but everyone pays attention to the commercials. This is Rawr’s guide to what ads to watch for during the 2015 Super Bowl.
Victoria’s Secret
Although known for showcasing scantily clad women, Victoria’s Secret’s teaser video for this year’s Super Bowl ad features well-known lingerie models in fully padded football uniforms. According to syracuse.com, the commercial’s message is directed to men, reminding them not to “drop the ball” this coming Valentine’s Day, suggesting they give their significant other something from their stores.
Doritos
Once again, Doritos is holding its “Crash the Super Bowl” commercial contest, where people go online in the weeks leading up to the game to vote on 10 separate commercials, two of which will be aired. In typical Doritos fashion, the entries are humorous and sure to leave an impression on ad lovers. You can vote for your favorite at http://magicbulletmedia.com/MNR/crashthesuperbowl/finalists.html
Wix.com
Apparently, Brett Favre doesn’t only advertise comfortable jeans. He and four other NFL legends will appear in Wix’s Super Bowl ad, which promotes the hashtag “#ItsThatEasy.” According to Business Insider, Wix hopes to emphasize how easy it is to create your own website using their program, while also creating laughs by having former NFL stars act as small business owners.
Skittles

The Skittles Super Bowl commercial teaser is nothing short of ambiguous. The ad will take place in a town populated by people who each have one regular arm and one muscular arm. The hashtag at the end of the teaser reads, “#SettleIt.” It never states what is being settled. This oddly intriguing teaser could make for a memorable commercial.
Anheuser-Busch
The Anheuser-Busch brewing company once again has all beer advertising rights during the Super Bowl. They plan to bring back the iconic Budweiser Clydesdales, as well as Bud Light’s “Up For Whatever” campaign, which began last year. According to Ad Age, one commercial is set to feature a life-size game of Pac-Man. If that’s not a reason to watch the Super Bowl, what is?
