Super Bowl 2011 Commercials (See Links to Commercials Here)

Carol Whyte
The highly anticipated Super Bowl XLV commercials are just two days away, and of course, ahem...so is the matchup between the AFC champion Pittsburgh Steelers and the NFC champion Green Bay Packers!

The game takes place in the Dallas-Fort Worth area at Cowboys Stadium (located in Arlington, TX). This is the third time the Super Bowl takes place in TX (the other two, VIII, and XXXVIII took place in Houston).

Typically, the Super Bowl will draw in more than 90 million viewers and as such, the prices for advertisements run in the millions. For example, in last year's New Orleans Saints' vs. Indianapolis, there were more than 106 million people watching according to the Nielson Company. (Click here for more on that.)

And that's why advertisers are willing to pay millions for their commercials. There are millions of people who are glued to their televisions and may, as a result, just buy their products and/or services.

Along with the extravagant price of advertising space during the Super Bowl, viewers can expect to see some high quality, sometimes extremely humorous and much buzzed about commercials (before they have even aired) that will be talked about long after the game is finished.

SPOILER ALERT: Now remember, if you do NOT want to see at least 24 of the commercials that are available for viewing, read NO further!

If however, you find you can't wait to take a sneak peek at the commercials, you don't have to wait!
