HYDLE + Nabor D – Sherpa House in Golden Colorado


[YouTube] <— 0 The Sherpa House in Golden, CO is amazing. Be sure you drink their authentic Sherpa House Ale from odell brewing company.

The Sherpa House restaurant and cultural center brings you the best of the Nepalese, Sherpa, Tibetan and Indian cuisine from the Himalaya. At least that is what the menu says… and take my word for it – the Tikka Masala and free range Yak Sizzla is amazing here – and affordable.

Namaste!

Coors Light – Tiger Woods


[YouTube] <— 3.025 Coors Light is advertising their new "master of cold" not so funny and [not genius] super cold ads on YouTube. Other then completely attempting to rip off the old spice guy I can clearly say I’m not a fan of this ad. Quit trying so hard to be funny and just make something simple. Maybe Ice Cube can save the day.

So instead of the Master of Cold… here is the masters of golf in a Tiger spec ad [genius].

Super Bowl Advertisement Rankings

I haven’t concluded my super bowl ad recap yet, but as usual… rankings are coming in from all over.

Animal Ads Resonate with Viewers
The overall number one ad with viewers (overall score of about 72.3) was “Saluting Beaver” from Bridgestone, featuring a motorist who is able to avoid hitting a beaver and then plunging into a river thanks to tire traction (and a little rodent-supplied assistance). “Saluting Beaver” scored first in both emotion ranking (evoking most possible positive and least possible negative emotions) and water cooler ranking (likelihood of participants discussing the ad at the water cooler the next day), and third in interest ranking (how well it held the interest of viewers).

Meanwhile, the self-explanatory “Dog Party” ad from Bud Light, which came in third overall, ranked first in viewer interest.

Automotive Ads Take Three Top 10 Spots
Three of the top 10 ads, including the number one ad, were for autos or automotive products. Two ads were for snack food, and one ad promoted a product in each of the following five categories: the NFL, beer, film, soda, and online portal.
