TOP SUPER BOWL ADS OF ALL TIME

The countdown to the big game has begun. There's a massive crush of media in Tampa, Florida, reporting on the teams. There are massive crushes of shoppers in grocery stores, stocking up for this weekend's Super Bowl parties.
The crazy thing is, very few people actually care about the game.
It's all about the food, the drink, the halftime show -- and the commercials.

MSNBC.com compiled a list of their favorite Super Bowl ads of all time. Here are a few of their picks. See how many you remember -- and how many made your list of all-time favorites:

The Budweiser Frogs -- 1995 -- Just three frogs sitting on a log and croaking the words "buuuud," "wiiiise" and "errrr." It was so popular, it created lizard and ferret spin-offs.

Apple Computer's "1984" -- One of the most famous commercials in history. A woman throws a sledgehammer through a theater screen and introduced the world to Macintosh computers.

Coke and Mean Joe Greene -- 1979 -- The Pittsburgh Steelers' Mean Joe Greene meets a kid in a stadium tunnel after the game and trades a Coke for a jersey. Classic.
