The Super Bowl is finally here. Today, the NFL will crown either the New England Patriots or the Atlanta Falcons as the champions for the 2016-2017 season. Millions of fans will watch the game - while millions will also hang around during the breaks in the action to watch the commercials.
This year, a 30-second ad cost about $5 million.
Here are some of the already released commercials for this year’s game, including some that are extended cuts of the version that will actually air during the game:
Intel
Budweiser

GNC
This ad actually was rejected by the NFL a few days ago. The league has GNC on their banned list due to supplements which are available in their stores that could cause positive drug tests for their players. It seems like a reasonable reason for them to reject the ad - keeping a consistent message.
