We Unearthed the Full Version of the 9/11 Commercial, Aired Only Once

The anniversary of 9/11 always evokes strong emotions and weighs heavily on hearts. This poignant advertisement, aired only once, is sure to stir deep emotions. In this Budweiser commercial, the iconic Clydesdales take center stage, paying tribute to the lives lost on that tragic day.

The ad begins with horses galloping through a field, donning their equipment before pulling a wagon away from a barn. They journey along a snowy countryside road, while spectators watch in awe as the majestic animals pass by.

The scene transitions to a cityscape as the horses traverse the Brooklyn Bridge into New York City, with the skyline looming in the distance. A close-up of one of the Clydesdales’ faces is followed by a breathtaking view of the Statue of Liberty.

As the music swells, the horses bow before the iconic landmark, leaving viewers deeply moved. The commercial, which aired during Super Bowl XXXVI on February 3, 2002, remains etched in memory and resurfaces online annually on this solemn anniversary.
