Corporations an Sports Events

When you think of corporations, you probably think of Fed Ex, Ups, and Microsoft. Did you know corporations also take part in the sports industry? Some corporations sponsor events that go on in sports .For example the super bowl, the Olympics, NBA finals, and the World Series. All of those events have to do with sports. Corporations sponsor sports events in an effort to promote health as well as business. The company AT&T sponsors a lot of golf tournaments and tennis. There are already getting money from the cellular company that they are running. Being a big corporation, huge event’s want them to sponsor them, when they have certain events. For example, a regular Sunday football is not going to be sponsored, but if it was the super bowl, it will be sponsored by a big company. Do you think this is good idea? I think it’s good, because corporations and sports are interacting with each other. The people that are going out every day to play these sports are not just doing it for their health. There doing it, because it's their job. They're playing for their team which is a company, and that company has a general manager, and a owner. Yes, they did it for fun in high school and college, but when they got to the next level it was all about business. They are getting paid now. Corporations look at it as a booster for themselves. They can benefit a lot from sponsoring sports events. The super bowl may have more than one sponsor. Each one of those sponsors will get some money from the event. Each year a sports event will have a different and bigger sponsor.
