Tonight before I left for work we had a bowl party. Not a Super one but rather the Puppy Bowl. I had never watched this before but the kids were excited about watching the big game and it didn’t come on until after I had to leave so instead we made up a bunch of big game food and had dinner in the living room (a big treat) while we enjoyed Puppy Bowl 9. It was cute, all these puppies come onto a tiny little “field” and there are chew toys that if they bring into the end zone scores them a touchdown. It is all pretty much puppies playing with each other while official commentators and a ref do the play by play and cater to the sponsors like pedigree and Bissell. On one touchdown Andrew threw his hands up in the air and screamed. I think he was really enjoying it. Meanwhile we were enjoying this spread.
We had bacon wrapped scallops, buffalo wings, jalapeno stuffed shrimp, buffalo chicken dip, BLT and Honey BBQ flavored chips, Helluva good dip, Steak and Cheese Egg Rolls and more. It was very tasty. The kids enjoyed it was well as their chicken nuggets.
I’m not a sports guy. I love tech, nerdy things, comedy and movies. For the better part of the year I use my DVR and fast forward through all commercials. If I catch a commercial it is certainly not on purpose. Not so with the Big Game. Every year I watch for the funniest commercials, the movie trailers and pretty much everything except for the football taking place.
This year I will be on the lookout for the Kia “Drive the Dream” commercial. The commercial will be showcasing Kia’s 2012 Optima Limited. I’m participating in a Twitter Party on Thursday February 2, 2012 from 7-8pm EST to get the word out about the commercial and also get a chance to check it out before it debuts. I’ve seen a few teaser videos for the commercial and also know about the content of the commercial (see Press Release below for more info). I’m looking forward to Mötley Crüe performing Kickstart Your Heart (my favorite Mötley Crüe song) being a part of this commercial as well as seeing what crazy dreams come from the mind of a guy who gets a super shot of “Sweet Dreams” from Mr. Sandman.
The commercial is 60 seconds long and will air in the fourth quarter of the Big Game. Prior to that date the commercial will air at movie theaters across the country on more than 18,000 movie screens nationwide in National CineMedia’s FirstLook pre-show program before airing in the game.
