Not since the 1983 Super Bowl that saw the Washington Football Team defeat the Miami Dolphins has there been a Super Bowl that was without a Budweiser ad. In 2021, that will change. The company announced that they will be donating the designated Budweiser advertisement money to COVID-19 vaccination awareness efforts.
The idea is noble, although it should still be noted that their other brands such as Bud Light and Michelob Ultra will still have ads during the big game.
There will be no Pepsi-specific ads this year, as well, as they are shifting efforts towards promoting the halftime show. Their other brands, such as Mountain Dew, will still get airtime, however.
As we continue adapting to a new normal, we must now adapt to a world that won’t feature The Clydesdales during the Super Bowl. Pour one out for the homies and enjoy some of the best Super Bowl commercials ever in the video above.
