One of the commercials during the Super Bowl was a commercial for google, where someone was typing questions into the google search bar. One of the questions started with “Who is” and the first thing shown in the suggestion bar said “Who is the Stig”

It’s at 0:25, and it only is shown for a split second, so you have to pay close attention

I saw it. That is awesome, you must have keen eyes to be able to see it. Once again, a refrence to Top Gear is ignored again. By the way, who was everyone cheering for. I liked the Colts.

How in the heck did anyone see that in the SB video?

Yep, I tried it by typing “who is the” and “Who is the stig” popped up 6th in the list.
