Not only are the banners, posters and building wraps etc starting to show up downtown, around the venues and on transit but there are a lot of new sponsor commercials showing up on TV.
The Government of BC has a short and long version of the new You Gotta Be Here ad.
I like the Nike Destiny ad. It was the first new ad I noticed a week or two ago.
The new Molson "Tapped" ad
He Shoots, He Score is the new ad from Coca Cola. It made me smile. Actually I wanted to go to the pub and have a beer. Odd that the Coke ad made me want a beer, and the Molson ad didn't. (I liked the ad just didn't make me want to drink a beer). And neither made me want a can of coke.
And a new Coke Open Happiness ad, titled "Snowball". Canadians causing trouble at the village.
This Wonderbread ad was actually run during Beijing 2008. Isn't it adorable?
I swear I've seen a new CTV Believe ad with a bunch of people in it, but I can't find it, so I must have imagined it.
I did find the Channel Nine (Australia) Promo. I like the ice hockey on Sydney Harbour, speed skating on the reef, and the ski jumping at Cradle Mt/Lake St Clair.
