The Super Bowl always has great commercials and this year is no different and one of the funniest commercials set for the big game on Sunday is for Bud Light and stars a number of big names in Minka Kelly, Don Cheadle, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Reggie Watts with an "average Joe" named Ian Rappaport as he goes on a wild ride around New York City.
The ad was released before the Super Bowl and features Ian coming to a bar and sitting down and he is being watched by hidden cameras as an actress comes up and offers him a Bud Light beer. She basically asks him if he accepts he has to follow what happens next and premise of the ad is "The Perfect Beer For Whatever Happens," and the commercial follows Ian on a wild night in the city.
After accepting the beer, Ian gets whisked away in a stretch limo for a bachelorette party and the car just happens to be filled with beautiful ladies and DJ Reggie Watts and Ian plays it perfectly with Reggie as the car makes its way to the next location. Ian is pulled out of the car and brought in to get dressed by none other than Minka Kelly and he is fitted with a nice looking jacket before heading back out into the night and he gets into the limo again with Reggie and heads off to another location as the party continues.
The crew with hidden cameras is following the action and at the next location, Don Cheadle gets on his elevator with a Llama and shows just how up for "whatever" Ian really is. "Hey Don," he says without being phased at all and even adds, "are we wearing the same coat?" before the door opens and a twin girl of the one Ian is already with steps into the elevator. Ian then hops off into a massive party where all the people there are twins and he says his "mind is blown" after leaving the party.
Next he gets off and is immediately brought into a game of ping pong with Arnold Schwarzenegger and after going back and forth, Ian wins and then a wall totally comes down to the ground to reveal a huge party with Onerepublic playing a concert and he ends up on stage. Definitely one of the best commercials of the Super Bowl and the final ad will be considerably shorter. "The best night of my life!" Ian adds at the end. What an awesome night indeed.
