Super Bowl Twitter Numbers
Twitter released some of their numbers from the Super Bowl. They include 24.1 million total posts along with:
231,500 Tweets Per Minute during the power outage.
183,000 Tweets Per Minute when the Ravens finally won.
268,000 Tweets Per Minute at the conclusion of Beyonce’s halftime show.
It also took a mere four minutes into the power outage before the first advertiser took out a promoted tweet against it.
Other, non-Twitter, odds and ends:
The street value of the silver used in the Vince Lombardi trophy is $3,500.
The Paul Harvey “So God Made a Farmer” speech used in the Dodge Ram commercial was made in 1978.
CBS used 62 cameras to broadcast the game.
A 30-second ad cost $3.8 million.
It’s estimated that Americans bet $10 billion by halftime on various aspects of the game.
I know I called C-C-C-Combo Breaker! on Super Bowl posts but here’s an interesting bit about the lights going out on the Twitter Bowl:
the half-hour-plus downtime gave brands on Twitter a chance to showcase humor, creativity….
Illustrating just how fast advertisers moved in: it took just four minutes for the first Promoted Tweet to appear against searches for [power outage] on Twitter.
Opportunistic branded image macro twitpics will be the new norm.
Time to find a new norm.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/67bd07e7a1d755d58dac338ca620daf8/tumblr_mhp9a1HvD71qedj2ho1_500.jpg)
