I'm not familiar with Super Bowl time slot strategy, but it's interesting to note that Coke aired both of it's ads during the 4th Quarter, while Pepsi set things off early.
This is awesome. Coke in that glass bottle -- even a balloon version -- always looks so delicious. And it looks like my cartoon friends agree! I don't even know the names of the first two characters, but I do recognize them. I do know one thing though -- they want that Coke!

And if I don't know, you can bet a large portion of the beer drinking, football loving audience is also at a loss. Just didn't do anything for me. And that bald guy looks like some sort of evil skeleton. After that joyful balloon ad, this one falls flat. D-.
