Β Big 4 sports jerseys have a certain aesthetic appeal, to make large sales. Most fans refuse to buy jerseys with ads of them. Merch sales overall are a bit different, compared to Nascar. Β At least there's no flashing ads during races to steal attention away from the racecars every 2 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_YouKnowWhatThatMeans Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I saw this for the first time during TNT's broadcast of the Kraken game last night. Β It's distracting to see different ads from the main camera (the fake ads) and close-ups/replays (what's printed on the boards). It really makes you hyper fixate on the ads instead of the gameplay. Β So I guess it's working.

Teams are getting the revenue the jersey ads, while TV networks are getting the revenue from the digital board ads. One wouldn't really affect the other.

kiwi_canadian Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 And Bettman has said that "he's heard from the fans and they said they like them and it is a non issue so they will be sticking around" (paraphrasing)... I'd like to know which fans he was talking to as the vast majority of people have stated that they really don't like them.Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
