Ads on the field are approved, so

What ad would you want on your team's home field (if you had to pick), and
what ad would you NOT want on your team's home field?
.
After they get over the initial grumblings, this will be great for the southern schools - inching college football closer with NASCAR.

I once wondered why ads were effective as so many are "dumb" and repetitive.  I was informed by our marketing folks that the core idea is not so much to persuade but to just keep the name of the product "out there", over and over, so it appears to be a "leading brand".  You just repeat "Band Name" over and over, and folks will gradually start to assume it's the thing to use.

Take, for example, Truist Park.  I'm no more incented to bank at Truist with or without that being named constantly, but apparently it works for enough folks.

Has anyone returned to buying Bud Light yet?

That's the key.  It's not brand awareness at the macro level, it's about proving that your brand is at that level.  Like if Pepsi stopped advertising completely, would people forget them?  No.  But would kids all flock to Coke, because what the hell is Pepsi, within 2-3 years, yes.

It's the financial services sponsors I truly do not get.  If there is some loan wholesaler who slaps their name on a park, that I've never heard of, I'm almost MORE skeptical of them

If I was rich enough I would love to pay for a joint ad supporting Trump's campaign, and Taylor Swift's Eras tour.  Just because why not.

In the end I would probably violate both campaign finance laws, and be cancelled by the Swifties, but just to have both of their legal teams working together against me is worth it.

I always find ads during golf tournaments funny.

It's basically business services (i.e. Workday), financial services firms, Rolex, and other high-net worth, business person, or luxury items...

...and boner pills. 

I have not yet aged into the prime golf demographic, I guess.
