There I was on this laptop computer with Jay Leno playing on the TV in the background. Then they go to commercial break and all of a sudden - I start hearing dog barks.
Dogs barking in a particular way... A Star Wars theme song.
Then towards the end of the commercial, there is this greyhound dog who is wearing a AT-AT walker costume (i.e. Imperial Walker from "The Empire Strikes Back.") Then you see a white screen and then the VW logo.
This is the latest entry of Volkswagen Star Wars theme Super Bowl Ad teasers. Last year, VW scored big with the little kid that was dressed up as Darth Vader.
Want to host a Superbowl party and need a really SPECIAL invite? A invite to the (Dark)Bark side of the Force. Check out the special little ditty Volkswagen has produced for your enjoyment.
By the way, here is a breakdown of the dogs and what characters that they represent. Back row, left to right: C3PO, Obiwan Kenobi, Stormtrooper. Middle row, left to right: R2D2, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Darth Vader. Bottome Row, left to right: Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, Yoda, Wicket W. Warrick (Ewok).
Of course, if entire video is not visible on this blog, just click on it and view it on YouTube.

I have been a life long fanatic for aviation and space related subjects since my parents took me out to a airshow when I was four or five years old.
Solo in a Cessna 150/152 in college, but never was able to get my Private Pilot's license. Love to fly whenever I get a chance to. Until recently, I was into radio control model airplanes. Had to sell them off due to current fincial times.
As for UFOS, I have seen them since the 7th grade. But I haven't witness any more since I turned 30 something - or paid attention enough to see them I should say.
