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!
Thanks to reader Nat Fraser for the idea submission.
Thanks for the shout out!
