GE Super Bowl Ads Leave Silliness to Other Brands

ge_power_beer_sb_2012.jpg

GE will likely be one of the few advertisers in the Super bowl that doesn’t go for the silly, the stupid and the plain idiotic. No, GE, with two :45’s, will, instead, focus on worker pride, legacy and good old Made in America spirit. One of the spots, Power and Beer turns into an ad for Budweiser at the end. It touches on the GE power turbines that provide the juice Budweiser needs to manufacture its beer.

It’ll be a nice break from the game’s usual silliness.
