Super Bowl commercials

When spending large amounts to purchase advertising time, companies want to know what audience they'll reach.

Men and women were asked separately whether they were looking forward more to the football game or to watching the commercials. Among the men, 16% were planning to watch and were looking forward primarily to the commercials. Among women, 30% were looking forward primarily to the commercials.
