Throughout the years, Nike and Wieden+Kennedy have released some of the greatest commercials I’ve ever seen period. From the “Just Do It” campaign that we all grew up on to the Jordan “Mars Blackmon” campaign that had me standing in for 3 hrs just to get them. But two of the best basketball campaigns that Nike has ever had, has involved something that everyone loves….Puppets. Thats right….Puppets. Nike started with the “Lil Penny” Campaign in 95′ and now they’re doing the same with the “MVP Puppets” campaign. So after taking a close look at both campaigns I’ve decided to have them faceoff to see which campaign is the best. Personally, I love the “Lil Penny” campaign the most because 1: you have Spike Lee directing, 2: Tyra Banks cameo, 3: Penny was like Jesus to me at that time. So let the games begin a vote for the best campaign.
FIRST UP: MVP PUPPETS
Name: “Three Rings”
Name: “Chalk”
Name: “Most Valuable Babysitter (Lil Dez)”
NEXT UP: LIL PENNY
Name: “House Party”
Name: “Living Room”
Name: “Tyra Banks”
