Would you rather miss a third down play than go to the bathroom during the commercials during Superbowl?
I’d say “no,” I’d rather miss the commercial since I know I can always watch them the next day on YouTube, but the Superbowl is about the only time I look forward to TV commercials.
Now we already know how expensive the ads are – I think this year a :30 ad costs $2.5 million. Today I hear that OUR tax dollars were spent on an ad that will be running during the big game Sunday by the U.S. Census Bureau. Really? Did we vote for that?
Maybe a more important question: why does the Census Bureau need to launch such a huge ad campaign? Is there fear of a huge backlash of people refusing to fill out the census forms? I don’t remember it being such a big deal in the past. I must be missing something.
So I thought I’d ask you. What do you think about all that taxpayer money being spent by the Cencus Bereau on one :30 ad? And – why are they spending it in the first place?
