• Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head appeared in a thirty-second spot during Super Bowl XLIII, in the first quarter of the game. Their picturesque convertible car ride takes a sudden turn when the pair sees a herd of sheep ahead on the road. Although Mr. Potato Head stops the car in time, Mrs. Potato Head's lips are tragically lost. However, she is able to give him the "evil eye." This commercial is one of two total purchased ads from Bridgestone.
