To fill the weekend space, NBC offered the AFL a slot in its schedule, on the condition that the league waive a rights fee and let NBC broadcast games in perpetuity. Under the arrangement, NBC this year got the initial $10 million in advertising revenues to cover its production and promotion costs. The next $3 million went to the AFL.
