Big Bowl Vote 2017
Drug-Free Action Alliance is sponsoring the Big Bowl Vote again this year.
Last year, 112 million people watched the NFL Super Bowl with youth under 21 making up about 18% of the audience. Millions of youth were exposed to alcohol advertisements, and studies show that alcohol ads directly increase underage drinking.
Meanwhile, 10,000 middle and high school students in 20 states participated in Drug Free Action Alliance's Big Bowl Vote 2016 last year, which once again revealed how appealing those Super Bowl alcohol ads are to children by letting the kids tell us what their favorite and most memorable commercials were. It also provides a great and relevant discussion point for media literacy.
