For this assignment I chose to read an article about the upcoming 2012 Super bowl commercials since we will be seeing them in a few weeks. This year’s Super bowl is going to be held in Indianapolis on February 5th. An estimated 90 million people watch the Super bowl on Super Bowl Sunday. It is safe to say that some viewers are more interested in the commercials rather than the actual game. Especially those people who don’t care about the teams involved in the competition. In this article I was amazed at how much it could potentially cost to fill one of the commercial slots. A 30 second slot can easily cost up to 2.6 million dollars. They do not know the total amount of money that they are going to be making this year on commercials alone, but it has been said that some of the commercials played will only be played on that one day of the entire year. It’s crazy that companies have this much money to spend on a commercial just to promote their services. However, I am one of the people who is very into the commercials and I judge them just as much as everyone else.
