2009 Commercial
Paying $6 million for a one minute slot entitled "Lizard Lake", SoBe once again spotlighted its naked dancing lizard squad but this time in 3D for Super Bowl XLIII. It features a group of football in white leotards dancing, including Ray Lewis, Justin Tuck and Matt Light, to the popular ballet number "Swan Lake". Then, as the lizards swallow drops of the energetic Life Water, the dance number turns into a rock themed dance-off between the players and lizards. -
2008 Commercial
Often referred to as "Thrillerlicious", SoBe premiered its first Super Bowl commercial at the end of the second quarters of Super Bowl XLII. At an estimated cost of over $5 million, it featured the SoBe lizards, which came from the company's logo and general ad campaign though they were now animated to the degree of coordinated dancing. Naomi Campbell and the lizards performed the infamous dance moves to Michael Jackson's Thriller.
