Coca-Cola to run Simpsons advert during Superbowl

Coca-Cola has partnered with Facebook to support the "Boys & Girls Clubs of America", and have commissioned a Coke advertisement featuring Simpsons characters! The synopsis, according to the press release:

"Hard Times” features a variety of characters from the television show The Simpsons, most notably greedy billionaire C. Montgomery Burns, who has fallen on difficult times. Just when all hope seems to be lost, Mr. Burns learns to appreciate life’s simple pleasures as he joins other characters enjoying Coca-Cola and Opening Happiness in a neighborhood park.

The ad will air during Superbowl XLIV on February 7, but you can see a sneak peek by visiting the Coca-Cola "Live Positively" fan page on Facebook and sharing a virtual Coke with friends. Coca-Cola will also donate $1 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, so it's a good cause!
