Will You Be Watching Super Bowl XLVII For The Commercials?

I’ve often heard that the ads played during Super Bowl commercial breaks are the main attraction of the game. Since companies are willing to pay around $3.8 million per 30 second interval of 2013 Super Bowl commercial time, I imagine there is at least some truth to what I've heard. We probably won’t see any libraries shelling out that kind of money for football advertising space, but maybe we will see a commercial that at least takes place in a library this Sunday. The following commercials were either made by a library or are set in one:

Food and Libraries
For obvious reasons, Gushers and Slim Jims are banned from the Kirkwood Public Library (just kidding).




Actual Library commercials
Please rely on the items you check out for fun...not your library card.





Noise In the Library
Libraries aren't exactly quiet places anymore, but a little silent communication is always welcome.

P.S. The game starts at 5:30 p.m. on CBS!
