Stuff History
Published July 2nd, 2006 in , , , .Over at 21st Century, JLo has been feeding us some highlights from the world of advertising and their campaigns for the FIFA World Cup. Well, here is (in my humble opinion), the best of the lot! It is the Nike campaign that ran before and during Australia’s run in the World Cup. The campaign was entitled “Stuff History”. It featured a decrepit old man, History, who would constantly tell the Aussies that history was against them… that they had no chance in the World Cup. Very funny.

I am LOVING those ads longtime! Made me laugh evertime I saw one - I love the one where he gets kicked off the bleachers…
not bad at all! Quite funny.
However I find the old guy a little annoying. But it gets the message across very well.
Nice kick too!!!!
