Super Bowl ratings

[Risen Star]

Good lord.

That would mean 1 in every 3 households in the US watched the Super Bowl.

That would mean 1 in every 3 households in the US watched the Super Bowl.

Unless each household averaged 10 viewers.
As it did say viewers and not households.

But, but, but, the NFL is gonna burn, I tells ya.

Just think if the boys were in the SB, what kind of ratings it would be. LOL

 

[TonyS]

I only watched for the halftime show.

Rating trending up all year. This is no surprise. Football still rules by a lot.

Parity drove some of that..Having the Bengals in with the Rams and 2 fresh QB's going..people tuned in to see it.

Saw some bold predictions of poor ratings in the game thread.

The "I'm done with the NFL!" crowd isn't as big as it seems on Twitter.

Would have been bigger with the Cowboys vs. whoever.

For sure it would've....there are 2 main groups for the Cowboys "I watch because i love them, I watch because I hate them"

It's almost like the largest TV market in the country had a team in the Super Bowl.

True but how many of those tuned in because they are die hard Rams fans from LA.

 

[Mr_437]

More people are going to start watching just to see what the refs do next.

 

[CouchCoach]

Not surprising. Playoffs leading up to it had a lot going for them and the Cinderella Cincinnati story was an easy sell.

Didn't hurt that Burrow was getting rock star treatment leading up to it outside of the sports world. Much like Namath did with the Jets game. A lot of "what's this all about" viewers.

But the real reason there were so many is that they were burning time watching halftime hip hop and waiting for the finals in Ice Dancing. I know that was me. Damn, 4 hours until the Ice Dancing. Oh, what to do with myself, what to do?

New York is number 1.

 

[bonafidebanter]

The Super Bowl is by far the largest platform on the planet, right? It may be even bigger next year. I've been going to Super Bowl parties every since we won our last one in '95. Even though Dallas isn't playing, I can't miss it.

LOL, yes no in between with them boys.

Isn't NY still the largest market?

Many tuned in to see Buck 50 hang upside down.
