Classic World Cup Commercials: Nike’s The Wall.

   

It’s very rare that I remember things from the…err…single digits. They were heady, heady times, and quite frankly I did a lot of things I’m not proud of. Nike either had difficulties remembering things in the early-90’s as well or simply didn’t care that neither England nor France qualified for USA ‘94.

But given some of the commercials of the time, this one was positively brilliant.

And apparently this was the first of its kind (one would assume ‘in the US’) as a football-specific commercial. And here I was just thinking it was cool for buildings to kick it to each other.

    Wow – blast from the past. Cant wait for the world cup to start, even though I am from the US (ha). I dont think Nike is the official sponsor this year, but according to their mens soccer shop, lots of teams will be sporting their kits.
