For those of us tuning into the Super Bowl who don’t identify as Chiefs fans or Buccaneers fans, we only know three things for certain:  The game will be close until the end because that’s how the advertisers want it, the halftime show will be lip-synced, and the commercials could very well steal the show.

Actress Rashida Jones, known for her roles in “The Office” and “Parks and Recreation,” will narrate the spot.

Budweiser has been patting themselves on the back over the stunt on social media as well, which really takes the air of the goodwill they’re staking claim to here.
