If you are a football fan then you know what this Sunday is. Heck, even if you aren’t a football you probably know about the big game. And, while the Cowboys are not there (yet) the game between the Atlanta Falcons and the New England Patriots should be a great game.
But, what if you don’t like football?
Well, good news, while we hope that the game is good, most of the time the commercials “steal the show.” Each year companies spend millions on advertising for this one game. Roughly 80 national commercial slots were available for purchase this year at approximately $4.75 million each!
And if you are spending that kind of money then you better have a great commercial!
This year, in addition to Lady Gaga’s halftime performance, look for commercials featuring Melissa McCarthy, the 80’s rock band Foreigner, vocalist John Legend, and Imagine Dragons as well as a spot directed by the Coen Brothers (Fargo and No Country For Old Men, among others). Should be a great crop of ads!
Whether you are hosting a watching party or family only, you better head to the store fast. Sunday the crowds at the store will remind you of the holiday season with sold out items and long lines. So load up on snacks and have some fun!
