Super Bowl LVIII's 30-second TV commercial costs have soared to $7 million, a 185x increase since the first Super Bowl in 1967. This reflects the high value companies place on the event's massive viewership, which continues to dominate ratings. The 2023 Super Bowl attracted 113 million viewers, a six-year high. The upcoming game, with potential record-breaking viewership due to Taylor Swift's involvement, is expected to see $1.5 billion in wagers, 35% higher than last year. Companies like MGM Resorts International, Caesars Entertainment, PENN Entertainment, DraftKings, Flutter Entertainment's FanDuel, and Wynn Resorts are highlighted as potential beneficiaries of the increased attention and betting activity.
