In this episode of Generation Trader, sponsored by E*TRADE, Cheddar's Hope King and Baker Machado take a look at this year's Super Bowl. They explore the top advertising moments, and how companies are using this opportunity to captivate consumers.
The Philadelphia Eagles took home the Vince Lombardi Trophy at the 52nd Super Bowl, defeating the New England Patriots to capture their first Super Bowl title. Companies reportedly spent $5 Million for a thirty-second spot to capture viewers between the plays Sunday Night.
One major advertiser again this year was Pepsi. One of the game's most talked about commercials featured two of the company's brands, Doritos and Mountain Dew. The ad showcases a singing battle between Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage, and actor Morgan Freeman, lip syncing to Busta Rhymes and Missy Elliot.
Procter and Gamble's Tide commercials were some of the most well-received during Sunday night's game. The detergent brand purchased several spots featuring Stranger Things actor David Harbour, with a message "Every Ad is a Tide Ad."

Starbucks’ decision to restrict its restrooms to paying customers has flushed out a wider problem: a patchwork of restroom use policies that varies by state and city. Starbucks announced last week a new code of conduct that says people need to make a purchase if they want to hang out or use the restroom. The coffee chain's policy change for bathroom privileges has left Americans confused and divided over who gets to go and when. The American Restroom Association, a public toilet advocacy group, was among the critics. Rules about restroom access in restaurants vary by state, city and county. The National Retail Federation says private businesses have a right to limit restroom use.
President Donald Trump is talking up a joint venture investing up to $500 billion for infrastructure tied to artificial intelligence by a new partnership formed by OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank. The new entity, Stargate, will start building out data centers and the electricity generation needed for the further development of the fast-evolving AI in Texas, according to the White House. The initial investment is expected to be $100 billion and could reach five times that sum. While Trump has seized on similar announcements to show that his presidency is boosting the economy, there were already expectations of a massive buildout of data centers and electricity plants needed for the development of AI.
