“Advertisers bring their ‘A’ games to the Super Bowl commercials, and Budweiser scored an impressive victory this year as the best of the best,” said Derrick Heggans, General Manager, AOL Sports. “AOL was among the first to let users watch and vote on their favorite ads, and we’re proud to continue giving Super Bowl fans the chance to have their voices heard.”
The ads will be available online on AOL Sports, http://aol.com/superbowlads, for a week following the game. Users can visit the site, watch the ads and still rank their top 10 favorite commercials.
