While south suburban residents cheered on local products in the Super Bowl, major companies showed off their products in the commercials. Tell us who had the most memorable ad.
From post-apocalyptic Chevy owners to Elton John as a Pepsi-dispensing king, last night's Super Bowl was full of memorable ads. We at Patch weren't that excited by the ads, though. We've seen a lot better. We recap some of the more memorable ones below, but if you liked something better (from past or present) tell us in the comments). Here are a few of our favorites.

Residents share their insight after attending the Super bowl.
National sports come alive every weekend in many people’s homes. In my house however, the games do not take over our lives or even our family room for that matter. My husband catches the Bears, Bulls or Cubs games when he can, but none of us are die hard fans until it comes to the playoffs, championship games and of course all Super Bowl games. The Super Bowl this year had lots of folks from our area that attended the game and now that they’re back, I was able to gain some serious scoop about what it’s really like to be at the Super Bowl. Wynne and David Baruch from Buffalo Grove had never been to a Super Bowl before. They were invited as guests of a corporation and the game was just one of the events they attended. Wynne was cheering on …

For restaurants in Buffalo Grove, Super Bowl Sunday can be the busiest night of the year - or the slowest.
As Super Bowl Sunday approaches, some Buffalo Grove restaurants are busily preparing for a spike in business, while others are taking a more laid-back approach. Amanda Eckart, assistant manager of Papa John’s Pizza, said she is ready for Super Bowl Sunday. “Super Bowl Sunday is one of the store’s busiest nights of the year. It’s so hectic, as we make at least 500 pizzas that day,” she said. “The phones are always ringing. The orders normally start coming in about an hour or two before the game, and then there’s a bit of an uptick before halftime so people can have their pizzas during the half.” “While everything is prepared fresh to order, we prepare vegetables and fold boxes ahead of time,” Eckart said. Moises Dorola, manager of Lou …
