Super Bowl XLVII

Last night, Adam and I hosted a small Super Bowl party. We laid out a spread of dips, Ghiradelli (from San Francisco) chocolate chip cookies, and pulled BBQ chicken sandwiches (with our Kansas City BBQ sauce). I even accessorized the table with flowers in the team colors of the 49ers and Ravens!


Beyoncé was, of course, incredible. I love Queen B and was so excited when the rest of Destiny's Child joined her onstage for a little reunion.


I wasn't really impressed with the commercials this year overall. I thought the best one was the Budweiser clydesdale commercial. I'm a sucker for the classics.


And the worst was clearly the GoDaddy commercial with Bar Refaeli. I won't even post it here because it was so disgusting.

The game was actually pretty good, but the most entertaining part happened just after halftime when half of the the power to the Superdome cut out for over 30 minutes. So weird. Twitter went a little crazy.


In the end, the Baltimore Ravens won, which is exciting because a) I went to high school with safety Bernard Pollard, and b) it means I won $25 in squares!


What did you do for the Super Bowl?

  1. nice recap! I also have to say the oreo library commercial was great. But I just like watching people go apeshit.

  2. I agree the commercials were kind of disappointing this year. There were only two or three overall that I really enjoyed (Amy Poehler's Best Buy commercial, the Ram farmer ad, and the Clydesdale one, but that's all that are coming to mind!); normally I would have wanted to do a recap of the best ones, but there weren't enough for it to be worth it!
