The NFL season came to an end last night as the Philadelphia Eagles took home their first Lombardi Trophy and staked their claim as the best team in football.
Off the field, one commercial has taken its place as one of the best ads during the game. The ad features former Ole Miss star Eli Manning and his Giants teammates recreating the famous scene from Dirty Dancing with Eli filling Patrick Swayze’s role and Odell Beckham Jr. subbing in for Jennifer Grey. Someone who was at Ole Miss during Manning’s tenure may have to confirm if these dance moves ever made their way to the Square.
The commercial centered around the touchdown celebrations from the league this year, which are back and better than ever.
Another ad featured Ole Miss basketball fan, Morgan Freeman in a “rap battle” with Game of Thrones’ Peter Dinklage for Doritos and Mountain Dew. Dinklage comes out first with Busta Rhymes’ verse from “Look at Me Now” before Freeman ends the ad with a lip-sync cover of Missy Elliot’s “Get Ur Freak On”.
