Super Bowl Live Persuasive Speech
The 51st championship game of the National Football League is the thing of the past. Patriots finally won with Falcons (we all thought that Falcons would win for the first time in their history!), Lady Gaga opened the halftime show, and we’ve seen this year’s best commercials.

Want to know something more about the whole event?

Well, Super Bowl Live! event was live for 10 days in Houston. The event was covered by 5,000 journalists and supported by 10,000 volunteers. But it’s not all, this year’s event attracted whopping one million people to Houston!

If you need any more proofs that this event has become one of the greatest sports festivities, there is one: the price of Super Bowl commercials.

Cost of 30 second super bowl ad

Back then, in 1967, a cost of a 30-seconds Super Bowl commercial stood around

Mercedes – Easy Driver and the Cohen’s brothers

How would aging bikers behave at a bar? Probably the same way as we can see in “Easy Driver,” a modern version of “Easy Rider.” Bikers may be old, may be clumsy, but they are still willing to fight once they hear that their motorcycles are blocked by a car. But it’s not just a car, it’s Mercedes-AMG GT Roadster, and the man who’s blocking them is the Peter Fonda.
“Easy Driver” pays homage to a series of legends: true to the original of the cult film from 1969, no-one else except its main actor and Mercedes-Benz fan Peter Fonda and the song “Born to be wild” by the band Steppenwolf were eligible. Directed by Oscar-winning duo Joel and Ethan Coen, the film unites the legendary actor with the new Mercedes-AMG GT C Roadster.
Audi – equal pay

This year’s Audi’s commercial is not about a certain model of a car, it’s also about the cause. The commercial features a little girl competing in a soapbox car race as the girl’s father narrates his struggle to discuss gender equality with

    The Road Warrior (1981, dir. George Miller) begins with Max (Mel Gibson) and his dog getting tailed in what appears to be some kind of apocalyptic future.This can be seen through what they drive, the styling of the two guys on the bike (mohawks and strange outfits...even for the eighties) and the harsh look of the climate. Max is obviously worried about being tailed and so is his dog, which is why the puppy keeps looking back while Max tries to speed up. There’s threatening music too. They then encounter some wreckage that’s smoking, which Max easily navigates through while some of his other pursuers crash. Maybe they’re inexperienced drivers, but it shows the expendability of the antagonists. They might be dead but we’re not meant to linger on…

    Every time I watch the Superbowl, I find myself (under the interrogative look of my friends) bitching about the effectiveness of “xyz” commercial that somehow succeeded in producing laughter among the audience. Then I start explaining that too often the joke becomes bigger than the brand and when it does, chances are you will most likely remember the punch line than the advertiser. If you just invested $2.6 million for a 30 sec. and everybody misses the point, it’s a huge waste of money.…

    Honestly, I like to think of baseball as an indefinite chess match, and you can sit there and try to take pieces early in the game or you can let your master plan kind of evolve and if you go out and get these big name pitcher and hitters who are 28-29 in the prime of their career and give them these 7-8 year contracts worth 200 million dollars. Well in that fifth, sixth, seventh year. They start breaking down and you’re paying them 20-30 million dollars a year and you can’t put enough good pieces around a single player to make up for…

    Super Bowl 50 was an existential game that year. There was everything a good game needed. The game was close; two great teams, and for the first time in a while a defensive matchup. Both the Panthers and the Broncos competed until the end. In addition, many plays will last forever as great Super Bowl plays. The 1st half, halftime show, 2nd half, and the end game press conferences made Super Bowl 50 a memorable…

    The day had finally come. No it wasn't Christmas or the New Year, Kwanza or even Easter. It was the the most glorious day of all days, the Superbowl. Now for anyone who has never heard of the Superbowl and lives in America, that person has either lived in a cave for their whole life or…well that I think would be safe to say that's probably the only case because everyone knows what the Superbowl is.

    Superbowl and culture

    Imagine 96.9 million people watching the same thing, ingesting copious amounts of food and beer, and cheering maliciously for a squad that may or may not be their team of choice. I grew up in South Africa where the Super bowl is not nearly as big as it is in the United States. I was naive to the idea of watching any big game besides the World Cup. When I moved to the US I did not know what the Super bowl was. 198 countries watch the Super bowl and it is aired in 25 different languages across the world. I can’t help but think to myself that this is just a game and I don’t really care who wins, even though my surrounding suggested otherwise. I am sitting in a room full of diehard Seahawks fans. All of the furniture has been moved to each wall in the little room so that everyone can see the big flat screen TV. Beers are cracked, chip bags are opened, and we are about to watch the most watched TV program in United States history, the Super Bowl. Bronco’s fans are turned away and the guys roar at them as they try to enter the small apartment. “If you are not supporting the Seahawks you can stand up and get the hell out” one of my friends yelled as non-supporters walked away. Bud Light is the beer of choice in the room and Doritos are the chip of choice. As the game is about to start the room ignites and everyone is immediately fired up. The commercials play through the loud chatter in the apartment and they seem to be unimportant except for a few that are considered memorable. The Super Bowl is a spectacle and there is nothing else like it. The Super Bowl is a large reflection of American culture. Through media, commercials, and the atmosphere that this game creates, patriotism and masculinity are unintentionally the main aspects of this spectacle.…

    There were numerous of insanely and outlandish commercials during the Super Bowl of 2015. Most of the commercials would have to advertise sex, kids, animals, or randomness in order to appeal audience. Then there are ads like the Dodge commercials. It sends a message that needs to be sent - respect wisdom. Social media can be cruel and demeaning especially to elderly people. The Dodge commercial that aired during the 2015 Super Bowl started off pretty pleasant, but that took a major turn quickly! While the elderly featured in the clip were giving a valuable advice to the audience, they then become a little aggressive. For their Super Bowl XLIX commercial, Dodge decided to recruit some pretty awesome centenarians to drop some wisdom on all of our collective heads. Why? Because Dodge is 100 years old too.…

    PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is a psychiatric disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as the military combat, natural disasters, terrorism incidents, or any major tragedy. This is common in the life of veterans and is the leading cause of suicide among veterans. A VA patient who survived in Baghdad shares his experience with PTSD and explains how he knew he had this disability. Many veterans speak out about this issue and describe their continuous anger, alcohol addiction, and constantly wanted to fight. They usually feel very isolated and distant from their loved ones. One patient states, “PTSD involves rocketing into extreme states of stress re-activity; in the form of terror, rage, and uncontrollable impulses, and plunging into equally extreme states of being shut-down—exhaustion, emotional numbing, despair, and dissociation”. PTSD is about having fear and anxiety, allowing veterans to rage with anger and different emotion. There are many factors to PTSD, which affects others in different ways; or example, using video games to keep them occupied, spending money due to the lack of impulse control because of changes in their brain, and even not obtaining another job.…
