UPDATE, 6:06p: “Casket” made it into the top 3! Just aired. The 2 other top finalists were “Underdog” and “House Rules.” Congrats, Mosaic!
8:31a: Tim Tebow’s pro-life ad may not be the only one riling secular liberals during today’s Super Bowl. We may also see an ad made by Mosaic Church in Pasadena, CA. It’ll be for Doritos, and it won’t be overtly Christian, but still – yet another sign Christians are daring to engage in pop culture, oh no!
Last autumn Doritos sponsored a Super Bowl ad contest, and by popular vote the Mosaic Church’s “Casket” ad is now 1 of 6 finalists.
All 6 have already won $25k. But the top 3 vote getters, which are being kept secret, will air during the game today. And they each have a chance to win $1 million, $600k, or $400k, if ranked the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd most popular Super Bowl ad according to USA Today’s Ad Meter.
Many members of Mosaic work in the film industry, and the church entered the Doritos contest to show Christians – shock – can be funny and relevant. Here’s “Casket”:
And here are the other 5 competing ads. Which are your top 3 favorites? Mine are, in order, “Kids these days,” “Casket,” and “House Rules.”…
“Kids These Days”…
“The Smackout”…
“Snack Attack Samurai”…
‘House Rules”…
“Underdog”…
Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
It would appear that Tim Tebow is not the only NFLer whose mother decided against abortion.
Indianapolis Colts assistant head coach, Clyde Christensen was also spared abortion when his mother who was a single 15 year old teen chose to give birth to him.
Many 15 year olds abort their babies. Clyde’s mother CHOSE not to.
In a direct way, Clyde mentioned the intergenerational effects of abortion – if he were aborted, his 3 daughters would not exist today.

“House Rules” gets my vote.
Casket #1, Kids These Days #2, House Rules #3.
Angel, just posted on that! Great minds… :)
I vote for the seasoned citizen and the vending machine.
Don’t mess with senior citizens.
They are too old to fight fair.
They will just kill you.

“Keep your hands off my mama; keep your hand off my doritos.”
Too funny. :)
*now wishes she had bought Doritos at the store*
Don’t really like any of them. Casket is ok. Don’t like sassy kids, violence, or cleavage.
I’m with Debbie, and for the same reasons. I’m off to look at the interesting Christensen post! Thanks, angel!
Didn’t care for “Casket”. “Smackout” was my favorite, followed closely by “Snack Samurai”. Love violence, don’t care about boobies, and I think dating with kids around is just tacky. I’d personally only have my boyfriend around my children after EXTENSIVE research of the guy. I’m talking…like…months. How many kids have been molested by mom’s boyfriend?
“Underdog” made me laugh out loud.
Doritos is joining Pepsi and Bud Light for commercials that make me want to retch.
Google gets my vote for most pro-traditional marriage, pro-family, pro-life Super Bowl ad.

Letterman definitely had the best one.
Kids these days and Underdog were hilarious! I know Casket aired but what other two? I didnt watch the whole game.
Sorry! I just read the update…
