Taylor Swift rushing back to the United States following her Japan Eras Tour concert to see her boyfriend in the Super Bowl was surely a long journey. But it was well-worth the trip. The 34-year-old was surrounded by her friends Blake Lively, Lana Del Rey and Ice Spice in their suite at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, chugging beers, and in awe of her Kansas City Chiefs star boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Super Bowl LVIII went into overtime in an extremely close game on Sunday night (February 11). The Chiefs came out on top, and when Swift made her way down to the field following their victory, she appeared emotional as she congratulated Kelce.

How did you do that?” She also appears to say, “I’m so proud of you.” Travis asks her, “Was it electric?” To which Swift replies, “Unbelievable. It was unbelievable. That was the craziest thing I’ve ever seen.”
Travis’ Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22, securing their third Super Bowl victory in five years. The game ended with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes throwing the ball to Mecole Hardman for a buzzer-beater touchdown. The big win marks a back-to-back title for the Missouri team, which has taken the Vince Lombardi trophy recently in 2020 and 2023. As if Swelce couldn’t get any cuter, they were singing along to Swift’s songs during the Super Bowl after party. The couple danced to an EDM remix of Swift’s “Love Story” and lock lips during the lines: “It’s a love story, baby just say yes.”
2024 Super Bowl: 10 Best Commercials
Super Bowl LVIII is in the books, so let’s look back at one of the biggest draws to the Big Game: The commercials.
In 2024, the Super Bowl commercials offered a wide variety for the millions of viewers who tuned in. Many major films released trailers, including Wicked, Twisters and Deadpool & Wolverine.
As expected, plenty of food/drink/snack brands bought ads during the Super Bowl. Many of them brought the funny, like Dunkin’ and Reese’s. Others offered fun pop culture moments, like Nerds, M&Ms, and e.l.f cosmetics.
Speaking of pop culture, celebrities were everywhere in the 2024 Super Bowl commercials. There was truly someone for everyone. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin showed up with a mullet in an ad for Kawaski. Meanwhile, Christopher Walken was confronted with hilarious impressions in an ad for BMW. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito reunited for State Farm, and FanDuel honored the late Carl Weathers. Uber Eats had a ton of star power in their ad with Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Jelly Roll, Usher and David and Victoria Beckham. However, .@Beyonce can break the internet. But can she break Verizon? pic.twitter.com/kWayhBFxbj

Obviously, these ads cost millions to produce, but the cost of the airtime alone was worth millions. According to The Wall Street Journal, the average cost for a 30-second Super Bowl commercial was $7 million. The cost has gone up significantly since 2010. Back then, the average cost for a 30-second spot was $2.6 million. However, the most mind-blowing price WSJ shared was the cost of an ad during the first Super Bowl in 1967. All of those years ago, when the Big Game was broadcast on NBC and CBS, a 30-second ad had a whopping price tag of $42,000.
Without further ado, here is our list of the ten best commercials that aired during Super Bowl LVIII in 2024.
