Foot Locker's dick joke sneaks up on no one.


The sports footwear retailer continues its long tradition of absolutely fucking terrible advertising with this new forced phallic un-funniness via New York agency SapientNitro. "No touching the sneakers," sez the referee-shirted actor-employee. Yes, good thing he said "sneakers," otherwise us moronic consumers wouldn't get your Avant-garde New York humor. Previous bad sneaker ads: Converse. Reebok (bullshit butt shoes). Reebok (they don't know runners). Nike (Beijing Olympics spot). Puma (stupid foam Usain Bolt arms).

What did you think of the K-Swiss Kenny Powers spots?

Celebs are an easy way out. But they're pretty funny because Danny McBride is pretty funny.

No "Footlong" puns? Methinks the ad was written by the class of undergrads used in said ad.

Ugggh. I liked this one much less than the 17 October 2011 one. Okay, "much less" was too kind. This ad blew. I don't even know what target audience they might have had in mind.
