Super Bowl Sunday: 63 commercials interrupted by 1 game
A quick post:
Super Bowl Sunday is all about marketing.
At least that’s what I think.
With about 158 million Americans with wide eyeballs and More than a billion viewers will watch the game, in 223 countries and territories, thanks to 57 international broadcasters, looking at the years most marketed game, and the fact that there is over $170.1 million worth of commercials sold by Fox: There will be 63 ads interrupting the game (or you might say the game will interrupt the 63 commercials), and for each 30-second spot, Fox will collect $2.7 million. Wow, that’s $90,000 per second.
I think that this is the first marketing “Game” and the second TV marketing event after New Years eve.
