Doritos winnerRemember the Doritos super bowl contest? Well, it turns out that according to Jason McDonell, director of marketing for the brand, the online effort and contest ultimately racked up one billion impressions, equal to $36 million in paid media.

Plus of course all the coverage for being one of the handful of advertisers to run a user generated content spot during the big game.

As a followup to the effort, check out Snackstongproductions.com where you can see the Dale Backus spot that won the contest. I still liked Mousetrap best.
