Bud Light's 2025 Super Bowl Ad Is Giving Major Dad Vibes
- Post Malone and Shane Gillis star in Bud Light's "Driveway" Super Bowl commercial, portraying cool dads enjoying a block party with Bud Light beer.
Musical artist Post Malone and comedian Shane Gillis aren't your average dads in the Bud Light Super Bowl LIX commercial; They're cool dads. Bud Light's "Driveway" spot made its debut on January 26 during the AFC and NFC championship games. The commercial shows the pair dressed to the nines — at least in dad world — in their finest jorts, tucked-in button-down shirts, and white tube socks that go up high enough to defeat the purpose of wearing shorts.
Posted up in their lawn chairs, the two look like they know exactly how to make the most of summer grilling season — and they do. With talk of fishing and colonoscopies, this commercial is a love letter to suburban dads if there ever was one. Bud Light cans being launched out of a leaf blower as an invitation to a block party is enough to convince anyone that Bud Light is here for a good, wholesome time. Never mind the iconic Peyton Manning guest appearance.
Even during the winter months, grilling is the easiest type of cooking . And something about a barbecue and a Bud Light on Super Bowl Sunday sounds like a block party we all need an invitation to. Two teaser commercials were released prior to "Driveway," giving viewers a glimpse into the shenanigans to come.

Bud Light's Ad Breaks The Fourth Wall
Post Malone and Shane Gillis broke the fourth wall in a teaser for "Driveway" when they discussed the legalities of drinking beer in a beer commercial. The pair counted down to the end of the teaser before enjoying a sip of their Bud Light. But this isn't the first time a beer brand has poked fun at this regulation. A Heineken ad back in 2014 featured a confused Neil Patrick Harris reacting to being told by production that he couldn't drink beer on TV.
As noted in a press release, this supreme dad commercial is Malone's fourth Super Bowl ad campaign with Bud Light and Gillis' first. However, it's clear these two are on a mission to motivate dads everywhere to don their jorts and prepare for the ultimate tailgating experience with Bud Light. If only we all had neighbors who would — without question — bust through our fences with a rider lawn mower in the name of epic neighborhood togetherness.
