NFL star Tim Tebow is taking the Super Bowl into space today by tossing a pigskin on the moon in a T-mobile ad to air during the big game. In the 30-second commercial during Super Bowl XLVIII, Tebow — who currently is without an NFL contract — shows off the wealth of work hes able to accomplish when not stuck with a contract. Everyone thinks I want a contract, but without one Ive done so much this year, Tebow says in the ad. There are scenes of Tebow delivering a baby, saving puppies from a fire, fighting crime and solving world peace. Life without a contract let him even fulfill a childhood dream, he says. That dream? Playing football on the moon, with the American flag and a moon rover in the background. In the brief clip, Tebow throws a ball to an unseen partner (youll see what happens to his lunar teammate at the end). It should be noted that while astronaut Alan Shepard did play golf on the moon in 1971 (a feat later repeated on the International Space Station by Russian cosmonauts in 2006), theres no word yet on when a real football game could kick off on the lunar surface.
