The NFL Super Bowl eyeball magnet results
The Kansas City Chiefs made a statement in Glendale in front of millions. State Farm Stadium has done historical numbers overall. As the party favors now fall from the sky at their celebration parade this week that train you hear in the background is the NFL's getting in motion.
The final destination is the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas. You know what happens here stays here. This is my favorite time of the year as a Fan Base Creator. This was the first Super Bowl played in a state with legal sports betting.
I was able to pop up at the Muckleshoot Casino in Auburn for the big game. The Caesars Sports Book was packed with NFL fans placing their bet on the big game. An estimated 113.1 million viewers watched the Super Bowl 57 telecast between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
The third most-watched television show in history according to FOX. Super Bowl 49, which featured the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks, remains the most-viewed program in television history. That game?also played in Glendale, Arizona, was watched by 114.4 million viewers.
The Super Bowl 51 overtime thriller?in 2017 on Fox between the Atlanta Falcons?and the?Patriots was seen by 113,7 million, with Tom Brady leading his team back from a 28-3 deficit.
Needless to say, the biggest sporting event in the world is now also the most bet on, legally. This time next year the Super Bowl train will make a stop in "Sin City" as NFL fans flock to Allegiant Stadium for SB58.

Record-setting sports book numbers
GeoComply, a company that verifies the locations where gamblers are betting, saw 100 million sports-betting transactions this Super Bowl weekend, an increase of 25% over last year. In and around State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, more than 100,000 transactions were verified on Sunday.
Can you imagine how much money will be wagered next February? It will be historical that is a fact. Glendale is the first sports betting state to host the big game, and with the NFL train in motion for Sin City records are made to be broken. Right, Kareem?
SB57 overall was a great game featuring young superstars driving fans' viewership up for the largest sporting event in the world. In addition, YouTube is set to cash in on the BiG Streaming Rush this fall. Their partnership with the NFL will feature out-of-market games through subscriptions.
Wrapping it all up
For the last 3 years, I have had my eyes on this event. Mainly as a Fan Base Creator. All I need is Jerry Jones to pay Roger Goodell the NFL Commissioner a check for the Cowboys to make an SB58 appearance. Ha!
One thing is for sure. The NFL continues to do numbers. Clearly between viewership and online sports betting. What does all this mean? When you find your niche as a creator you must get intimate with it.
