In a Super Bowl that was filled with product placement, alcohol promotion, and the pro-longing of stereotype-enforcing commercialization, there were a few bright spots. Perhaps the brightest of which happened to come from the one and only Cleveland, Ohio.
First Energy ran a 30-second ad promoting their partnership with the Cleveland Browns describing their construction of “Dwayne Browder Field” on Cleveland’s east side.
The commercial talks about how it’s every kid’s dream in the inner-city to play football under the lights, something that rarely happens in Cleveland, but is standard procedure in the suburbs.
The field went from being covered with rocks and glass to a state of the art facility that Clevelanders can be proud to call their own.
