Planters 2020 Super Bowl Commercial Goes Viral
A Planters 2020 Super Bowl commercial went viral on Wednesday.
In the lead-up to Super Bowl LIV between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, there are two things to look forward to.
For football fans this will be a fascinating stylistic match-up featuring arguably the league’s best offense versus undeniably the NFL’s best defense.
For non-football fans, however, this will be an opportunity to watch the most interesting ads television has to offer.
One early entry for the latter group features a Planters commercial where they kill off Mr. Peanut.
In the ad, you can see Mr. Peanut, Matt Walsh and Wesley Snipes dangling off a cliff – when Mr. Peanut decides to make a big sacrifice.
We’re devastated to confirm that Mr. Peanut is gone. He died doing what he did best – having people’s backs when they needed him most. #RIPeanut pic.twitter.com/12PyWYJB7J

As you might expect, the commercial teaser immediately went viral.
Will Planters end up with the best commercial from this year’s Super Bowl batch?
We’ll get our answer once and for all come Feb. 2.
