Outdoor brand Marmot splurged on a Super Bowl ad this year.

The result was a bizarre - but oddly adorable- ad that had tons of people talking. 

The commercial featured a man and a marmot (an oversized squirrel) doing a variety of activities such as camping, hiking, and making snow angels.

At the end, the man goes in for a kiss and gets rejected by the marmot.

Mark Martin, president of California-based Marmot, told the local Fox 2 station that the company spent an entire year's ad budget on the commercial.

Marmot sells outdoor clothing and is a competitor to North Face and Patagonia.
