When the adidas adverts for the the Olympics first started showing up, I thought they were amazing:
Clearly Reebok thought so too, here’s their latest ad campaign on Nanjing Dong Lu:
Then again, perhaps we shouldn’t feel bad for adidas; they weren’t exactly the first people to hit the same idea:

Turkish battery company for Euro2008

Portugese Sports TV channel for the 2007 Rugby World Cup.




Well . . .reebok is part of adidas.
Adidas did it best and I’m not just saying that because I’m brand loyal.
BRING ON THE SHOES!!!!!
adi own Reebok mate
The goalie in the third ad has definitely strayed off his line. I think the fourth image is actually from a rugby match in the 1800s, shortly before the RFU introduced the rule restricting the number of players per side to 15, as opposed to the earlier limit of 15,000.
James, many good things are inspired by others. My blog is “inspired” by yours, except I decided to make it slightly funnier and more interesting :-p
James, your blog never fails to make me laugh. God, I wish I was in Shanghai right now. I miss people walking around in their nightgowns, the unbearable weather, and the smell of my sweat.
great observation
human waves are so obviously public domain. what
