While many of us are focusing on football today, those in Canada should keep an eye out for the MFC’s commercial during the Super Bowl.
Via the MFC release:
Fans in Northern Alberta can see the ad while watching the big game on CTV Edmonton. The spot features all the details about the upcoming card on Friday, Feb. 25 at the River Cree Resort and Casino including wicked highlights of light-heavyweight title contenders Dwayne “D-Bomb” Lewis and Ryan “The Big Deal” Jimmo plus lightweight champ Antonio “Mandingo” McKee and his challenger Drew “Night Rider” Fickett.
The commercial will air on CTV Edmonton at approximately 6:15 p.m. MT (near the end of the first half) and again at 7:15 p.m. MT (midway through the third quarter).

Payout Perspective:
Super Bowl commercials have been as popular as the game itself. The MFC is capitalizing on this by investing money in commercials during the game. The commercials are local so none of us in the U.S. will catch them.
You sure caught me with that headline? I thought MFC was doing a national commercial which would probably cost more than they have made since inception. I wonder how much they were able to run a local spot for? I am also curious if they have done other advertising on TV? It would also be interesting to see what kind of traction they get with it.
I would like to see the big boys do more advertising in other sports rather than fighting amongst them selves.
