Anheuser-Busch Tops USA Today Ad Meter

As we suspected, Anheuser-Busch and Ameriquest scored highly in USA Today’s Annual Super Bowl Ad Meter ranking.

The brewer took the number one slot for is Bud Light commercial in which a hesitant sky diver jumps out after a six pack. Also placing in the top ten were AB’s “American Troop Thanks You” spot (3rd) and it’s cell phone ad in which a guy sees a pic of his girlfriend with another guy. As we also expected, the Ameriquest spot in which a babbling cell phone user is misinterpreted to be a robber placed number two on the list. The mortgage company also placed i8th for its spot in which a guy, after struggling with his cat and a pot of tomato sauce is seen by his girlfriend holding the cat in one hand and a knife in the other.

Napters placed last on the list for its commercial promoting it dead-on-arrival Napster To Go music rental program.
