In case you missed it, here is the beer commercial that made pretty much everyone cry during last night's Super Bowl:
The foal in the video was born just a few days before the commercial was filmed, according to Mashable's Todd Wasserman. The baby horse was also the subject of Budweiser's first-ever tweet last Monday morning, he said.
Budweiser is asking fans to help name the foal, and the final name should be announced Tuesday, according to USA Today.
The commercial, about a horse trainer's poignant reunion with a clydesdale he had raised from birth, sparked instant emotional reactions from fans.

Actress Sophia Bush posted a teary-eyed photo of herself on Instagram with the caption, "Did @misslauramoses and I burst into tears during the Clydesdale commercial? Maybe...So What?"
Twitter user @Pauly_Miller confessed, "Trying to watch the game, but still sobbing from that Clydesdale leaving the farm commercial."
And another user @BMS_Chubbs tweeted, "I now want to raise a horse, sell it to @budweiser, miss him dearly, reconnect at a parade & share a passionate horse hug, thanks #clydesdales."
The heartwarming video topped USA Today's Ad Meter, which rates the popularity of Super Bowl commercials based on an open online survey. The commercial received a high score of 7.76 out of 10, followed closely by an ad for Tide Miracle Stain.
"Budweiser has done it again," tweeted Jimmy Fallon. "Well done."
