Here is the deal. Think of an idea for Doritos brand commercial. Not Just any idea but one worthy of being called the best of the Super Bowl. Maybe it’s an action packed story about the first time you tried Doritos brand Tortilla Chips. Maybe it reveals what life is like for the spices on the surface of the chip. Anything. Make the video that would knock you out of your seat if you were watching the Super Bowl. Make it yours. Shoot it. Submit it. Make it as one of the five finalists and win $25,000. Then, if America votes it their favorite, your video will be aired as a Doriots Brand Commercial during Superbowl XLIII. But that’s not all. If your ad gets the top spot on the USA today Ad Meter, we’ll give you a $1,000,000 bonus. Sounds good? We thought so.

I just checked it and it is working fine - it is a big long flashy intro that takes a while to load depending on your connection speed, and the TV shows until the backgrond load is done. Patience required . . .
