Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. An early commercial just after the coin flip featured the Ford Fusion and comedian Rob Riggle letting us know they would run double the commercial in honor of double the mileage with the Fusion. Who played Rob Riggle in the second airing of the commercial?

Answer: James Franco

Same lines used, just glitzier set on the second run-through. They also ran the spot in the following program, "New Girl", starring Zooey Deschanel.
2. Keeping their streak alive as 'first during-game commercial', what product was advertised in the first commercial after kickoff?

Answer: Bud Light

Budweiser has held this opening commercial spot for over five years, a coveted spot that has a premium on the cost. The ad was the tease for what happens when you accept a Bud Light from a stranger. They later resolved this with a second commercial putting the guy in a limo for an incredible night on the town.

The night involved Don Cheadle, Arnold Schwarzeneggar and the group One Republic.
3. Chevrolet Trucks' first commercial in Super Bowl XLVIII featured a bull coming home to stud, all to the sounds of 1970's group Hot Chocolate. What was the song?

Answer: You Sexy Thing

A bit of a creepy commercial; one rarely sees cattle flirting. "Where ya from, you sexy thing" will never seem the same to me again. Chevrolet was going for towing capacity and durability, but a lot was lost in the images of cows getting turned on.
4. In a commercial that compared watching two teams you don't root for (in this case the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks) to watching a girl you like go to prom with someone else, what did the advertised company recommend you do instead?

Answer: Do your taxes

TurboTax was the money behind this ad, advertising that it's only a national holiday for Denver and Seattle. Feel better by taking the time to get the taxes done.
5. U2 took some ad time during Super Bowl XLVIII to introduce their newest single, available as a charity purchase to benefit (RED), an organization trying to eliminate AIDS in Africa. What was the name of the song?

Answer: Invisible

The other choices are previous singles released on earlier albums. U2 will release a new album Spring 2014. The song was downloadable for free and benefited (RED) with $1 per download until the end of February 3rd.
6. "The 80s called, they want their store back." That is how Radio Shack began their ad, and then brought in myriads of 1980s icons to wipe out the store. Who WASN'T one that we saw in the commercial?

Answer: Mr. T from "The A-Team"

Who WASN'T in this commercial (other than Mr. T)? It featured Erik Estrada from "CHiPs", John Ratzenberger from "Cheers", Chucky from "Child's Play", the California Raisins, Kid n Play...it was a who's who of 1980's pop culture. All of them took something from the store, and updates to the store were then made.
7. Tim Tebow was in the news a lot in 2013 even though he never played a down that year in the NFL. But his T-Mobile commercial from Super Bowl XLVIII showed he had been busy. Which of these was NOT one of things he has been busy doing this past year?

Answer: Successfully run for U.S. Senator

The concept is "No Contract, no problem" as T-Mobile is going contract-free. something Tebow was familiar with in 2013. Other jobs featured stand-up comedy, rock musician, stuntman for the "movie" titled "Illegal Formation", and campaign for world peace.
8. One company attempted to marktet its product during Super Bowl XLVIII showing us that grizzly bears located near small towns apparently prefer a certain food found in supermarkets. What is it?

Answer: Chobani Yogurt

Featuring all-natural ingredients, Chobani is choice of a new generation. Of 1500-pound bears. The bear tears the market up to find something to eat, and finally finds the Chobani.
9. In a car commercial from Super Bowl XLVIII, Laurence Fishburne reprised his role as Morpheus from "The Matrix" to make the public rethink what luxury is in an automobile. What company created this one?

Answer: Kia

Kia introduced its new K900, a new luxury car trying to break into the sales percentages of Cadillac, Lexus, Mercedes and the like. Morpheus is featured singing Nessun Dorma in the back seat while things explode around him.
10. Late in Super Bowl XLVIII, Chrysler's only commercial brought in rock royalty to discuss America and cars. Who narrated this film noir commercial?

Answer: Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan, from the Upper Midwest, talked about "what more American than America? Germany can make our beer, Switzerland can make our watches, but we'll keep our own cars, thank you." They took similar low key approaches with Eminem and Clint Eastwood in recent Super Bowls.
