Total of 66 ads were shown during the Super Bowl LX Sunday’s big game, and that’s not yet part of the news saying that this is among the editions of football’s biggest night that saw the most number of audience in history!
Weeks approaching the last bout of last year’s NFL, Ridesharing Forum revealed the ads and teasers that caught the critics’ and the experts’ attention, and these include Sabrina Carpenter for Pringles, Matthew McConaughey and Bradley Cooper for Uber Eats, and George Clooney for Grubhub. Wait, Clooney for Grubhub and the newer stars for Uber Eats? Nevertheless, here’s the news scoop.
Several media and ridesharing media have spoken, revealing what they think are the best ads showcased during Sunday night’s sporting show. NBC Sports has also listed down theirs, with the first on their recap, the ad featuring Kurt Russell, Lewis Pullman, Chloe Kim, and TJ Oshie for Michelob Ultra.
“The Big Game crosses over with the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympics in this ad for Michelob Ultra, where Kurt Russell takes on training Lewis Pullman for the slopes, topped off with a cameo by Team USA Olympians snowboarder Chloe Kim and hockey player TJ Oshie,” NBC Sports stated.
Smart move. Follow that is the ad with Peyton Manning, Shane Gillis, and Post Malone for Bud Light.
In the ad, the stars attended a wedding event wherein guests ended up chasing a keg of Bud Light, not Bund, down a hay-covered hill. It might have ended up on NBC’s list, since these are comeback stars for the Super Bowl.
Also on their picks is the Fanatics Sportsbook ad with Kendall Jenner. The team means that Fanatics Sportsbook isn’t much of a loud brand, with the A-list Hollywood celeb, Kendall Jenner, is making it big.
“Kendall Jenner gets candid about her romantic relationships with NBA players for Fanatics Sportsbook, ending with a quip about betting on football players: ‘Let’s get that ring, boys.’”
Only, if the ad was about her romantic relationships with NBA players, it could be done movie-esque, not too business-y, with her like selling from a TV shopping show, TV shopping show, not even online shopping.
On top of the list of NBC Sports also is the Instacart ad, featuring Ben Stiller and Benson Boone. Yes, the “Beautiful Things” singer.
“Ben Stiller is joined by pop star Benson Boone to promote Instacart through a musical number, culminating in Stiller trying and failing to mimic Boone’s signature backflip,” the NBC Sports correspondent indicated.
As you could notice, the ads from ridesharing and food delivery apps are nowhere to be seen yet, since next on NBC’s list are Budweiser and Pepsi. The Pepsi ad is also cute and reminiscent of the classic as it features a bear, a polar bear, perhaps.
Next on the list of NBC Sports are Uber Eats, Oikos, and State Farm. Ah, at last.
Sarah Effress’ commentary on the Uber Eats Super Bowl LX spot? She stated, “Matthew McConaughey and Bradley Cooper debate whether football sells food in this ad for Uber Eats.”
The rest of those on NBC Sports list, in proper order, are Hims & Hers, Pringles, Squarespace, Grubhub, Hellmann’s, Google Gemini, Novartis, Pokémon, Lay’s, and more. Facebook’s missing, didn’t you notice? For more ridesharing and delivery news, keep browsing this Ridesharing Forum website.
