The New England Patriots will face off against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
A commercial expected to air during Superbowl LI this Sunday would probably not have been controversial at last year’s championship game.
The game within a game that is putting an advertisement during the Super Bowl is a risky one, as there is a good risk of a company’s commercial going completely forgotten, or even worse getting a negative reaction. Federal Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Christina Garza told Newsday that security planning for this Super Bowl began three years ago. Within a decade of the debut of “1984”, advertising rates doubled to $1 million for a 30-second spot. These resources include surveillance specialists, cybersquads, intelligence analysts and SWAT teams, who were deployed as many as 10 days prior to the game to keep celebrations around the area in check.
T-Mobile used the star power of Justin Bieber, Rob Gronkowski and Terrell Owens for their Super Bowl ad. “Then it’s 2 a.m. and they think ‘Whoa, I have to be at work at 8 a.m'”. Most experts believe those numbers are overblown and the Super Bowl won’t be the economic boom many had hoped for. That’s certainly one way to get around the issue of sexism in Super Bowl commercials, but it’s not the most ideal way to do it.

He said the dynamics have changed since 2004, the last time the Super Bowl was here. If anything, it will make Super Bowl commercials an even better deal relative to regular ads.
Beer and vehicle companies are going to have some of the bigger ads this year, just like they do for every Super Bowl.
