Okay, so, a few days ago, I was just messing around on the internet, you know, killing time. I was thinking about those old-school commercials, the ones that used to make you laugh out loud, not like the ones we see now.

Then, for some reason, Dan Marino popped into my head. I always thought he was cool back in the day, a total legend on the field. Then I remembered those M&M commercials, and I was like, “Wait a minute, was Dan Marino in an M&M commercial?”
So, I started digging. First, I just googled “Dan Marino M&M commercial.” I know, not very creative, but it worked! I found a bunch of articles talking about NFL legends and funny commercials, even some stuff about Dan Marino’s career with the Miami Dolphins and his college days with the Pittsburgh Panthers.
I even found out that he started the Dan Marino Foundation. That was a nice discovery.
But I still wasn’t 100% sure about the M&M thing, so I kept going. I went down a rabbit hole of old Dan Marino ads from the ’80s and ’90s. Man, those were a blast from the past! Some of them were hilarious, some were a bit cringey, but they all brought back memories.
Then, after scrolling through a bunch of results, I finally found it, the “aha” moment. There it was, a video clip confirming that Dan Marino was, indeed, in an M&M commercial. It was like finding a hidden treasure! I watched the clip, and it was just as funny as I imagined it would be. It was part of a campaign where they had these NFL legends like Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith pretending they might unretire.

My Findings
- First, I searched the net with basic search terms.
- Second, I discovered some facts about Marino’s career.
- Third, I watched a bunch of old ads from the past.
- Finally, I confirmed that the commercial existed and watched it!
It was a fun little trip down memory lane, and it reminded me of how much I enjoyed those old commercials. Plus, it confirmed that my memory wasn’t playing tricks on me—Dan Marino really was in an M&M commercial, and it was great!
