Despite the big game being a total blowout, the Super Bowl was considered a "social" success. Twitter revealed that its social network saw more than 24.9 million tweets about the game and halftime show, an increase from last year's 24.1 million tweets. And while much of the social conversation revolved around big plays and the halftime performance, it wouldn't be the Super Bowl without commercials. In fact, more brands took steps to increase the social chatter around their ads this year, with Twitter reporting that 58 percent of the national ads featured a hashtag, up from last year's 50 percent.
