Brands always talk about being real time, but usually it’s just talk.
Some big brands, however, actually put their money where their mouth is and acted swiftly in response to last night’s Super Bowl blackout.

Here are six examples of brands who were able to be agile and fast in responding to the Super Bowl blackout.
