Super Bowl spots are still the hottest ticket in advertising. Yes, the NFL
postseason is finally upon us, and the road to Indy runs through Green Bay
and New England. NBC has sold all the commercial airtime for the Feb. 5
game in Indianapolis and even has a waiting list of advertisers. The
average cost for a 30-second spot this year was $3.5 million, with some
time slots costing as much as $4 million. Seth Winter, senior vice president
of NBC Sports group sales & marketing, said in a recent interview that the
last time slot was sold just after Thanksgiving. A year ago, FOX Sports said
It sold the last of its advertising spots before the end of October. Slots are
still available during NBC's pregame show, and those on the waiting list for
the Super Bowl will have an opportunity to advertise if other companies
give up their slot.
