Hey, big spender: Ryanair made its very own Super Bowl ad

A typical 30 second ad during the Super Bowl sets you back $4.5 million.

THE SUPER BOWL is a day when American Football and advertising go hand-in-hand.

It’s a big day for sports fans, but it’s also a chance for some of the world’s global companies to flog some of their stuff.

So, how much does a 30 second advert on NBC cost during the Super Bowl? That would be $4.5 million, please.

Always one to poke fun, Ryanair posted their very own advert on YouTube last night, going up against the big budgets of companies like McDonalds, BMW and Reebok, who all ran ads during the Super Bowl.

It probably cost a little less than the others…
