Here's our favourite 11 Super Bowl ads of all time...

As well as the on-field action, the adverts are a staple of America’s biggest sporting night. We rewind the Sky Box on the best 11.

IT’S NOT ALL about the football, y’know?

There’s the pre-game, post-game, half-time show.. and the ads to enjoy during the Super Bowl. Here’s some of the most memorable.

11. Coca-Cola, Mean Joe Greene (1979)

A heart-warming ad in which a young fan offers a drink to a weary-looking Pittsburgh Steeler ‘Mean’ Joe Greene, only for him to down it in one go.

In return, Joe tosses the kid his game worn shirt. Touching.

9. McDonalds, Bird and MJ (1993)

Two NBA greats, Larry Bird and Michael Jordan, playing a game of Horse over a Big Mac and fries. Enough said?

8. Budweiser, Frogs (1995)

One of the most memorable adverts around, the croaking frogs. Bud-Weis-er.

7. Reebok (2003)

Hilarious advert in which a company hires humongous Terry Tate to improve productivity. Click through to view.

6. Fed-Ex Castaway (2003)

This fantastic parody of the film Castaway, in which Tom Hanks returns a package he found while stranded on an island. But guess what’s inside.

5. E-Trade, Baby (2008)

Who doesn’t love talking babies? E-Trade were right on the money with this fantastic baby advert.

4. Budweiser, 9/11 Tribute (2002)

A truly stunning ad, where the trademark Clydesdale horses make their way to where the 9/11 towers once stood, before bowing their heads to honour those who had passed in the disaster. Superb from Budweiser.

3. Doritos, House Rules (2010)

This was one of the favourites; a son lays down the law with his momma’s date.

2. Budweiser, Wassup (2000)

Everyone was shouting ‘Wassssup’ after this one, and when your idea becomes a phenomenon repeated by millions you know you’ve done a good job.

Will Ferrell in this hilarious blooper spoof of basketball star Jackie Moon.
