Glendale, AZ (CNS) - A Budweiser commercial featuring a cute dog, a handsome horse and the "Rocky" theme song walked away winners during Super Bowl XLII. The Budweiser commercial won the USA Today's 20th Annual Super Bowl Ad Meter results, which are voted on by viewers.

Budweiser commercials have been a staple of Super Bowl shows for years, with everything from streaking sheep to horse snowball fights. This year a Clydesdale named Hank took center stage as he worked out in hopes of making the Budweiser hitch team. Hank's trainer, a Dalmatian dog, put him through a series of workouts set to the theme song from "Rocky."

In a feel-good move typical of Budweiser commercials, Hank makes the team and gives his canine trainer a high-five, that would be hoof to paw, in the end.
