Controversy, Commercials and Food: Super Bowl Sunday

Written by MBU Timeline on . Posted in Opinion

For many, Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest day of the year. For advertisers, it certainly is as this year’s average is $4.5 million per 30-second spot, an all-time record. The Super Bowl is set for 5:30 p.m. Sunday on NBC, but usually the game itself is only part of the celebration. Today’s blog by MBU Timeline writers answers this question: When you think about the Super Bowl, what stands out for you? Also today, our reporters head out across campus and ask other students their thoughts on the Big Game.
