LOWER STANDS LOWER STANDS Seating capacity: 18,000,000. That's a big stadium they play those AFL football games in. Every Sunday, come September, a conservatively-estimated turnout of 15,000,000 fans will take their ABCTV seats (on the 50-yard line) and follow the AFL's exciting brand of football. It's the AFL's 3rd spectacularly successful season on ABC-TV. If you're looking for reasons why AFL football is such a good buy, look at the football audience. Football, according to a recent Nielsen survey,* leads all major sports in attracting the top of the market— the younger, larger families with higher incomes. And AFL football, with its razzledazzle, wide-open style of play that is made to order for home screens, delivers these responsive families in concentrated strength. Huddle with your ABC-TV sales representative. Get the story on the extended coverage, exceptional reach and cost efficiency your sponsoring dollar buys on a full 18-game schedule, including the Big Championship play-off. It's quite a story.
