COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX/WTTE) — Mr. Peanut has passed away at the age of 104, Planters announced Wednesday.
“It’s with heavy hearts that we confirm MR. PEANUT has passed away at 104 years old,” said Samantha Hess, PLANTERS Brand Manager at Kraft Heinz. “He will be remembered as the legume who always brought people together for nutty adventures and a good time. We encourage fans to tune in to MR. PEANUT’s funeral during the third quarter of the Super Bowl to celebrate his life.”
Mr. Peanut's death comes the same day Planters released their new Super Bowl pre-game advertisement. The video shows Mr. Peanut driving the NUTmobile with his pals, Matt Walsh and Wesley Snipes, riding along.

But when the crew sees an armadillo in the road, Mr. Peanut is forced to swerve, causing the vehicle to spin out of control.
The trio then jumps out of the NUTmobile and clings to a tree branch as the vehicle crashes into a deep canyon below. When the trio realizes that the branch will soon break because of their combined weight, Mr. Peanut lets go and sacrifices himself to save his friends from impending doom.
“MR. PEANUT was more than just a friend – he was a hero. His passing has shook me to my core,” said Matt Walsh. “I’ll do my best to honor his legacy and be there for my friends like he was always there for me even until our last wild ride together. I’ll pay my last respects during his funeral on Super Bowl Sunday. I encourage our entire nation to do the same.”
