4) T-Mobile’s “Drop the Balls”
Pure advertising genius right here. Using Steve Harvey to take a shot at a competitor (Verizon) on the biggest TV day of the year? Brilliant.
The 30 second ad they ran during Super Bowl 50 also has an extended version, which you can view below, and yes, it’s worth the extra 17 seconds.
We’re not done making @Verizon#BALLOGIZE. See an extended version of our spot with @IamSteveHarvey! https://t.co/XppUms79fy

Humor is great, but so are commercials that catch us completely off guard, like this next ad.
