Harris Quest, an AI-powered real-time research software suite from the Stagwell Marketing Cloud, released new survey insights following Super Bowl LVIII gauging what really makes the Big Game so entertaining for the general population in the United States. Using QuestDIY to create, target and deploy quality surveys at speed, Stagwell generated insights fewer than 24 hours after the game's conclusion and fewer than four hours of fielding to capture viewers' perceptions around the hot topics, trends and memes surrounding Super Bowl 58.

"There were so many memorable moments around the Super Bowl, and this is just one example of how quickly QuestDIY can work for organisations looking to capture quality consumer insights quickly and efficiently," said Stagwell Marketing Cloud CEO Elspeth Rollert. "With the added benefits of a generative AI survey builder, real-time analysis and reporting, and transparent cost estimates up front, our advanced survey platform is built for the modern marketer."

Big Game, Big Moments

A country (Taylor) divided? With all eyes on America's sweetheart, respondents were asked to recall how many times they saw Taylor Swift on screen during Super Bowl coverage, and the results were a near-split – with 47% indicating "The Right Amount," and 45% noting "Too Much."

The meme of the night goes to: Travis Kelce yelling at Kansas City Chief Coach Andy Reid, with 1/4 of respondents claiming this as the most memorable meme of the night.

Slam Dunkin': "The DunKings," the humorous spot from Dunkin' featuring Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, and Tom Brady as a musical group performing for Jennifer Lopez in the studio, took the prize as the favourite ad of the Big Game.

Ladies who ranch: Ranch emerged as the clear winner (35%) among condiments that pair best with the Super Bowl snack table – which increases to 42% for women when broken down by gender.

Halftime heroes goes to: The hip-hop crew of 2022. While no one said "No" to Usher's halftime performance this year with a little help from his friends Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Will.i.am., Lil Jon, Jermaine Dupri and Ludacris, his ranks second in order of preference from the last five years of shows, topped by Dr. Dre, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, 50 Cent, and Anderson Paak in 2022. Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, Bad Bunny and J Balvin rank third, followed by Rihanna and The Weeknd, respectively.
