Superbowl Commercials on Youtube

Everyone is crazy about the Superbowl commercials, because they are simply awesome! People actually turn their televisions on just to watch these commercials.

Watch this hilarious Superbowl commercial, which is voted best on YouTube:


Major brands spend millions of dollars to create and air commercials in between a Superbowl game. To be more precise, CBS charged $2.6 million for a 30 second commercial during Superbowl XLl last Sunday. These numbers won't shock anyone as these expensive commercials air time has been a tradition for years.

And for the last few years, there are millions of people (including myself) who go on YouTube to watch these Superbowl commercials. You can watch any commercials anytime. YouTube had to take a lot of these videos off due to copy rights, which then makes watching these great commercials much harder. I have to Google and search for secure websites, which is such a hassle.

Guess what?

YouTube finally figured everything out. First, major brands set up accounts on YouTube, so they can upload their commercials on Youtube. Second, there is a ballot on YouTube(http://www.youtube.com/adblitz) for viewers to both view and vote for the best Superbowl commercials. This is perfect in two perspectives as normal viewers like myself can watch these hilarious commercials anytime I want, and major brands like Doritos can gain more exposure from their commercials.

Good job YouTube!
