Ha! That's too funny. I imagine they make for a good post-hibernation snack X) In all seriousness, thank you for the feedback - while I don't expect the rules to change this time around, I can promise you I will relay this feedback and see what we can do in the future.

Got a great idea for a Doritos commercial? Crash the Super Bowl is back with the most amazing grand prize yet: $1 million and a guaranteed opportunity to work with one of the hottest entertainment teams in the industry today - The Lonely Island (founded by Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma...

Remember the “Free Doritos” Super Bowl commercial with the crystal ball? It was the #1-rated spot and it was created by fans as part of last year’s “Doritos Crash the Super Bowl” contest. I’m working with Doritos on this year’s big competition, and the stakes are high: $5 million in cash prizes...
