Commercials starring athletes

Recommended Posts

I was just thinking of the Pizza Hut ad with Peter McNeely, where he got KO'd by a slice of pizza. Can't remember though if the ad came out before or after his fight with Tyson. Had it come before, it'd be up there with the funniest commercials ever.

 

The new Nike ad (Vick playing hockey, Serena playing volleyball, etc.) was cool until the 1,507,378th time I saw it.

Roger Clemens, Dan Patrick, a pitching machine and a bag of oranges. One of the funniest commercials ever.

 

Those "What if?" commercials were OK at first, but after seeing them so many times, I'm kind of tired of them. Although, if Agassi wants to play second, I have no problems with it. ;)

The "Air Jordan/Hare Jordan" commercial was also excellent. I really liked the Mars Blackman ads back in the late 80s/early 90s, too.

I disliked Mars Blackman, disliked Jordan, and hate Spike Lee to this day, but I do have to give this commercial props for at least one thing: I still say "it's gotta be the shoes" to this day. Any commercial that can spring a saying that lasts so long can't be too bad, I guess.

When ever the extended version of Serena's vollyball section of that new Nike commercial comes out, that will be my favorite commercial.
