One of two Sierra Mist spots in Super Bowl XLI, "Karate" via BBDO New York finds Michael Ian Black instructing Jim Gaffigan, Tracy Morgan and others in self-defense (but not well). See also "Combover," which ran in the same quarter. The ads were an expansion on Sierra Mist's lone 2007 Super Bowl spot "Wand."
