Happy Super Bowl Sunday! Hey, here’s a question: who decided to schedule this on a work night?! We’d be happy with Super Bowl Saturday, but that’s just us… Anyway! Can we talk about what we’re seeing right now? There’s a LOT to dissect with some of these commercials, right? And, of course, the iconic Halftime Show has everyone buzzing. But this is the Disney Food Blog, so we’re mostly interested in the Disney parts of this event, and, believe it or not, there’s a pretty big connection between the NFL and Disney!

…the winner is going to a Disney park! Just like the iconic commercial would have you believe, players from the winning Super Bowl team typically make their way to either Disney World or Disneyland for the Super Bowl parade, and this year, it’s taking place in Disney World!

This year’s ad focuses on the company’s three major streaming platforms — Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ — featuring anchor franchises and programming from all three. As per AdWeek, a 30-second cut of the spot will air during the Fox broadcast of Super Bowl LIX, sometime near the end of the first quarter or beginning of the second, depending on gameplay’s effect on ad-break placement times. A minute-long cut is currently available on YouTube and other social platforms.
Yay, sports! Go team! We’re getting ready for the big game next Sunday and we know we’re not the only ones…but we weren’t quite expecting these guys to get in on the fun!
