Will Ferrell apparently made a Super Bowl commercial that most of the United States didn't see. The commercial in question appears to have only aired in Nebraska, which I guess would make some kind or sense ... or not. And it's just about the most Will Ferrell thing imaginable.
The commercial consists of Ferrell walking slowly through a wheat field with a dramatic instrumental playing. He's walking triumphantly, perhaps leading one to believe something big is about to happen. But nope, just more slow motion walking.
As he finally gets up to the camera, Ferrell cracks an Old Milwaukee beer with authority. The Old Milwaukee logo flashes on the screen and Ferell says something that appears to be bleeped. It's almost like an outtake from Talladega Nights.
Sorry about the quality but, you know, Nebraska and all. I'm not sure about you, but I have the sudden urge to meander through the nearest wheat field while sipping on a cool Old Milwaukee. It worked!

FYI:
That’s a soybean field.

For what it's worth
That ad looks to have appeared in North Platte, Nebraska. In the middle-of-nowhere of all middle-of-nowheres, NP is closer to Colorado and Wyoming then Omaha. Interesting “test market” idea I suppose. Hard to test it when nobody is there to view it. haha

North Platte is
an interesting study of good versus evil. It’s the hometown of both Danny Woodhead and former Nebraska athletic director Steve Pederson.
