Brett Favre Wrangles In Two Endorsements at Once

Here is a Wrangler Jeans ad featuring Brett Favre that has been running recently during football:

While this ad campaign has been going on for a couple years, notice the subliminal messaging:

Is the ad about Wrangler jeans or Jeep Wranglers? Did Jeep pay off some prop guy to use their car or did Favre get to keep the Wrangler if he throws near it? More recent versions of the ad include the Target logo, which would make sense if they had a deal with the clothing distributor, but to purposefully place a Jeep and the logo together is just weird. Imagine this Jacksonville Jaguars season tickets commercial with a player driving around in a Jaguar instead of an Audi. Even worse, the Denver Broncos could have an ad touting their star running back driving a white Ford Bronco to the stadium. Wait, what is that car next to Favre in the picture? Oh no, the Juice is loose again!

Is it Jeep or Jip Wrangler?

Here is another car ad that makes an appearance on this blog:

This fine print is a long one:

What’s the point of showing all these cool stunts the car can do, when it cannot even do it? How lame has Jeep become that crossing a puddle is not covered by the warranty? It can only cross 20 inches of water? That’s good to know so next time I’m getting chased by aliens/zombies/dinosaurs through the swamp I’ll make sure to bring my yard stick and measure before crossing.

This week’s edition comes with a bonus fine print. Lenny Kravitz is obviously not driving through that water and is not the professional driver. They had to make sure the Jeep was extra clean for his fancy leather outfit.
