A Super Bowl commercial that Fox said was too controversial to air was revealed online during half time. The ad, by 84 Lumber, featured a huge wall -- with a large wooden door built into it. 84 Lumber, a $2.5 billion building-supply company, said the ad was initially rejected for being too "controversial" so it cut the wall out of the ad to air it on TV. In a statement after Fox first rejected the ad, 84 Lumber said it was "looking for people with grit, determination and heart, no matter who they are, where they come from, or what they look like." The Super Bowl ad was aimed at recruiting hard-working employees, according to a company spokesperson, and was "meant to speak to everyone."
