My Favorite Ad

I selected this ad because it really caught my attention. Just from the beginning it caught my eye by having the theme of the commercial sports. This is not even an ad just for soccer players but an ad for all sports fans. I like they way they flip the sings and make pictures out of the signs. They go back and forth filling the beer bottle and at the end, they end up making it look like its being drank. The image is great for the consumers becaue most people like to drink beer at sporting events. They did a really goood job with this commercial.

Through out these past two days there were a couple of advertisements that stuck out to me. One was during the Miami Heat game and it was Lebron's new commercial it was really good. Another commercial that stuck out to me was Derrick Rose Adidas commercial had an wear out effect on me because they played it so many times. Even when i was on the internet there weren't many eye popping ads that caught my attention.
