You Can Even Bet on the Super Bowl Commercials!

    WILLEMSTAD, Curacao, Jan. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- While the Super Bowl is the
 most watched broadcast each year because of the game, millions tune in just to
 view the commercials. The ads have become a cultural phenomenon serving as
 water cooler fodder the day after the game. With polls ranking the commercials
 now commonplace, leading online sportsbook PinnacleSports.com today entered
 the Super Bowl ad game by announcing odds on which commercial will win the USA
 Today's 18th Annual Ad Meter poll.
     The largest sports betting site on the Internet, PinnacleSports.com has
 calculated individual odds on eight companies that have bought airtime during
 this year's game. Attempting to capture the Ad Meter title for an eighth
 consecutive year, Anheuser-Busch is once again the odds-on favorite to win the
 viewer poll at 1/2 odds (i.e., win $1 for every $2 bet). Burger King, airing
 its first Super Bowl ad in a decade, is listed with the second best odds at
 9/2 to be voted the most popular commercial. PinnacleSports.com lists longtime
 Super Bowl advertiser Pepsi at 8/1 to win the poll for the first time
 since 1998.
     "When people talk about Super Bowl dynasties they mention the 1970's
 Steelers, 1980's 49ers, 1990's Cowboys and the current New England Patriots,
 but nobody has dominated the Super Bowl like Anheuser-Busch," said Simon Noble
 of PinnacleSports.com. "In recent years, Budweiser has been the MVP of Super
 Bowl advertising -- making another company the favorite to win the Ad Meter
 poll was never an option."
     CareerBuilder.com, who'll "roll out the monkeys" for a second consecutive
 year, comes in at 10/1 to win USA Today's poll. The odds makers at
 PinnacleSports.com list Super Bowl veteran FedEx at 12/1, while Emerald Nuts
 (15/1), Subway (15/1) and Unilever (18/1) have been installed as long shots to
 win their first Ad Meter title. All other companies advertising during Super
 Bowl XL have been included in the field, which bettors can wager on at
 6/1 odds.
