The most recent deal that Pepsi signed was worth $2 billion dollars across 10 years of service. They recently renewed their contract during the 2022 offseason, but surprisingly decided to drop the rights to sponsor the Super Bowl Halftime Show.

The league is now seeking somewhere in the range of $50 million per season for the rights to sponsor the Super Bowl Halftime Show.


#2 - Anheuser-Busch - $230 million

Anheuser-Busch is the largest brewer in the entire world, providing many major beer brands such as Budweiser, Bud Light, Stella Artois, Becks, Corona, and Corona Light. They are the official servicer for all stadiums' beer supply, which they pay $230 million annually to own.

Another major perk Anheuser-Busch receives is the liscencing rights to all 32 team logos for use on beer cans. Bud Light owns the title of "Official Beer of the NFL" and often brands their cans with team logos on them during the football season.
