Budweiser’s Best Ads
You don’t have to wait for the Super Bowl to see the best Super Bowl commercial this year. It should be no surprised to learn that the winning ad, in my opinion, once again belongs to Budweiser. They just know how to make a great all American ad to go with one of America’s favorite pastimes.

I know it may seem a little early to be discussing Valentine’s Day but it’s coming, ready or not. I thought I would do a public service and help the gentlemen of Missoula out a little bit by letting them know what not to get their ladies.
