According to the announcement, Facebook Super Bowl offers a variety of mini-newsfeed for fans, which ensures that interesting content will always surface. Fans can see posts from friends and people in their network with Friends and Groups, view posts from the NFL, teams, players, NBC and other public voices with In the Story, view live scores and see what people are saying real-time.
And of course, we can bet that sponsored content will emerge there, as brands and agencies will have the uninterrupted attention of millions pairs of eyes.
It’s not the first time that Facebook embraces sports; In fact, during the Sochi winter Olympic games it had partnered up with NBC to bring users live coverage of the games, without the burden of ad breaks or buffering.
