A few minutes after half-time of SuperBowl XLVII, the lights went out in the Superdome. It didn’t take long before my Twitter feed exploded; with jokes of the Jerry Seinfeld variety to smart responses from brands. Here are a couple of my favorites from the night:

I love @Oreo‘s response! If you want more information on how their team was able to get the graphic up so quickly, check out this Buzzfeed article.

I’m sure there were other clever brand responses that I missed. What were some of your favorites? Let me know on Twitter or in the comments!
