Just want to say that any post that uses an image of Scrooge McDuck to symbolize FIFA is my newest favorite.

Thanks sscouser. Just read about that, and have also found images of the ads, so will follow up with a fresh post.

In yesterday’s Sunday Times (South Africa), Kulula flighted a full page advert that read: ‘Not next year, not last year, but somewhere in between.’

Could that be June/July of this year?

The ad is illustrated with golf tees, which look very similar to a certain plastic trumpet but are labelled ‘Definitely, definitely a golf tee.’

The page is bordered by two hanging pieces of cloth, which are labelled: ‘Colourful beach towel? Flag?’

Towards the bottom are a pair of what appear to be soccer boots, but have no studs, next to which is written, ‘Nooit, they’re running shoes.’

Dominating the middle of the page is a structure that, at first glance, looks like a football stadium. But Kulula were told that they cannot use the Cape Town Stadium in their last advert. This is, in fact, ‘Storms River suspension bridge.’
