Listen, whether you’re a pigskin-loving, team-colors-face-painting, $10,000-ticket-buying super-fan of America's, uh, other favorite pastime, or simply a casual observer who’s just here for the suds and wings, or maybe even – gasp – one of those filthy nerds who once referred to the uniforms as “costumes” by accident in front of all your friends, it’s safe to say that there’s one thing we’re all looking forward to when Super Bowl Sunday arrives: the ads.

The insanely expensive commercials are the advertisers’ chance to reach one of the most embiggened TV audiences of the year, and as such the ads are often memorable, celebrity-filled, and these days, of course, meme-ready. But in the pantheon of Big Game ads, what are the best of the best? Which commercials in the history of the Super Bowl have proven truly worship-worthy on the holiest day on the American calendar?

From Betty White's Snickers ad and the Budweiser frogs to Ridley Scott's iconic "1984" Apple commercial and the more sobering likes of Chrysler's "Halftime in America," featuring Clint Eastwood, these are our picks for the best Super Bowl ads of all time.
