I really enjoyed watching the Super Bowl this year. I have not been a fan of football and rarely do I watch the Super Bowl. I have some fond memories of watching it back in the ’60s and ’70s. My mother worked for a restaurant and the owners were strong Stanford alumni. I followed Jim Plunkett’s career for many years.

But over the years, I’ve grown less and less interested. Even when the local Seattle Seahawk team was in the Super Bown. But I have become more interested in it recently to watch the commercials.

This year it was definitely a great game. It really helped to watch it with two NY Giant fans at the GTG in Paso Robles. I didn’t really have a favorite team but I’m glad the Giants won.

I also enjoyed watching the commercials. There were more than a few losers in this bunch but several that I’m looking forward to seeing again. So here is my top 5

Naomi Campbell and the dancing Sobe lizards
The screaming animals for Bridgestone tires
Training the Clydesdale horse for Bud light
Ugly girl with unibrow for Planter’s

And my favorite the Fed Ex Carrier Pigeons
