Here at BARK we love celebrating all things America on Super Bowl Sunday, but this year as the ads started to be released, we noticed a HUGE glaring error: Super Bowl advertisers have completely forgotten the greatest creatures in the Milky Way galaxy… THE DOGS.
To rectify this grievous error for the future, we will be here all night correcting ads and making an armchair social media STINK to all of these advertisers who need to correct their behavior for next year.
Below is a documentation of our activity, we’ll be updating this article all evening. And if you would like to join in on the OUTRAGE and STAND UP FOR OUR FOUR-LEGGED FAM and their lack of representation by posting savage pro-dog comments, please visit all of the Super Bowl advertisers’ social accounts and leave a comment with #YOUFORGOTTHEDOG so that they make these commercials more interesting for next year.
CHEETOS: Just a real missed opportunity, fam.
The commercial:CONTROVERSIAL OPINION: every #SuperBowl commercial sucks because there’s no dogs 🤷
