Depending on your inclinations, the excitement of last night's Super Bowl may have been for the commercials. Some 50-ish ads played during the game, at a reported price tag of $2.7 million for each 30-second spot.
As always, marketers around the Internet are Monday-morning quarterbacking the commercials, and debating both the merit of the ad and wisdom of spending a pile of cash on it.
Here, we're taking a more Zen approach with our collection of Super Bowl (Mostly) Marketing Haikus, as well as a handful penned by marketing luminaries. Feel free to pen your own, below!

Running, jumping, sweaty guys
Why do people watch?!
