Not All Ads Make The Final Cut. Maybe Because They Were Too Funny. That’s Probably It. They Were Too Funny To Air And Got Banned
Creating the best Super Bowl commercial doesn’t necessarily mean being the best. It just means being better than the rest.
But sometimes advertisers take this strategy to the next level and end up creating commercials that can’t be aired. Too racy, too controversial or just plain offensive, it’s an advertising trick that works year in and year out. If history is any indicator, there were be at least one 2017 Super Bowl commercial that gets banned.

We just can’t imagine why this was banned. Oh wait, yes we can. Thank goodness there’s YouTube to let us (and more than 13 million other viewers) ogle longingly over those, um, hamburgers.

No one is powerless to resist the temptation that is Kim Kardashian’s booty! Want to know the secret to KK’s ass? Skechers.
3. Bud Light, 2006
Bud Light is the way to go for the great taste that will always fill you up and never let you down. Bud Light is also the way to go for the great commercial that will never let you down.
