Super Bowl 2022 – Check out this year’s Super Bowl commercials

Watching Super Bowl LVI between the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Rams also means we get to watch all the star-studded, sometimes funny, sometimes odd commercials for everything from beer to cars to travel sites.

For a 30-second ad during the Super Bowl, some advertisers have paid as much as $7 million, according to NBC, which broadcasts this year’s game. The average cost is $6.5 million, up from a $5.6 million average for 2019 and 2020.
