One of the most important questions for NFL fans is “Where the next Super Bowl event will be held?” It is a usual question, since the interest in the event is huge, especially in the host cities. Last season, the game took place on February 4, 2018 and the place was more than interesting. It was the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The capacity of the stadium is 66,655 and all these fans had an opportunity to see The Eagles winning the game.
What was interesting was the case that NFL rejected the veterans group’s ad about standing for the national anthem, which attracted the attention of the news.
How big is the audience?
In the so-called “big game”, the audience is always bigger than usual expectations. Super Bowl XLIX (49) was the biggest event in the U.S. television history with more than 114.4 million people who watched the game. It all speaks in contribution to the fact that Super Bowl events are the most popular events in the U.S. The numbers speak for themselves.
An average cost of a 30-second commercial was approximately $5 million.
In comparison to other sports events, it is important to mention the 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League final when more than 360 million people watched the soccer game. This fact shows the popularity of soccer in other parts of the world, especially in European countries.
However, the Super Bowl is definitely the biggest thing in the U.S. and it will stay the most important event for a long time.
