We’re over the hump and well down the stretch towards the Big Game.
The Super Bowl isn’t just about football. In fact, some viewers will tune in on Sunday exclusively for the ads. Like, me.
The rivalry between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers won’t be the only match-up this Sunday.
There’s a band of Cowboys, a gang of "Badlanders" and a pack of Vegas-style Showgirls competing for an elusive bottle of Coke.
Let’s meet the competition!
SHOWGIRLS
NAMES: Miss Latrobe is Lead Showgirl, Lucille navigates the bus and Ethel picks the music.
OCCUPATION: Showgirls
ORIGIN: Reno, Nevada
IN DESERT SINCE: They left Reno to drive all night to get to the next night’s show in New Mexico. Somehow they took a wrong turn.
THEIR MOTTO: The show must go on!
SKILLS: Beauty, glamour, high kicks and absolute synchronization
WEAKNESS: Their bus is glamorous but not necessarily suited for rough desert travel.
HASHTAG: #CokeShowgirls
COWBOYS
NAMES: Ringleader Lushwill is in charge of the outfit, Saint John and Virgil are his partners, and Josiah, Amos and Clara are along for the ride.
OCCUPATION: Cattle runners, suspected outlaws
ORIGIN: Cody, Wyoming. Though they picked Clara up after her wagon turned over in the Rio Grande.
IN DESERT SINCE: They started driving cattle through the Western Territories.
THEIR MOTTO: Vigilance. Honor. Horses.
SKILLS: Horse riding, lassoing, cattle roping, rugged stare downs and silence.
WEAKNESS: The Cowboys follow the cowboy code, no matter what.
HASHTAG: #CokeCowboys
BADLANDERS
NAMES: Altus is the boss, Hennie is the strongest, and then there’s Big Boy, Baseball, Macaw and Lizard.
OCCUPATION: Scavengers
ORIGIN: “The Wide Sand” in what was formerly known as the Kalahari in Namibia
IN DESERT SINCE: “The Big Event”
THEIR MOTTO: Mottoes are for losers.
SKILLS: Resourcefulness from surviving so long in the desert. They know no laws, so they don’t play by any rules.
WEAKNESS: The Badlanders know of nothing from before their time, so they don’t know what to expect out of their rivals.
HASHTAG: #CokeBadlanders
