Here in Salt Lake City, our Utah Jazz arena features a radio-controlled helium blimp (approx. 10' in length) that can be maneuvered to all elevations to drop promotional goodies into the crowd. Given the shot angles and live nature of drone-like shots, my guess would be that a similar sort of blimp (though larger and with gyro/steerable cam) was in use, flying above the cablecam system.

The subtle moves on the stills and/or video in the Paul Harvey truck/farmer spot were pretty nice. Not art, but good craft and wise advertising use of "quiet is the new loud." So that kind of stood out.
And was completely surprised to see a spot featuring The Flaming Lips. Ya, they're an old band. But still...
Teddy, I don't think they had any UAV drones inside the superdome. They were using Cablecam or a competing system. Totally cool, but absolutely fly (and suspend) by wire:
