Best Nike Commercials - Ever

I hate this thread. [/Phil Mushnick]

 

This gets my vote, because if I remember the story correctly, it was all by chance. Director was there to shoot something else, noticed Tiger nearby just goofing around. He asked if he could shoot it, and the rest is history. I should also note that the music is great, and the simplicity of it, the world's best player doing crazy shit with a ball, is fantastic.

 

No where near the best.

 

This one was absolute genuis when it first came out, and is still amazing.

They actually did one that I only saw air once, first commercial after the end of the European Championship final between Spain and Russia. Made me want to go and run stadium steps right after I saw it.

Here it is.

 

I really like the Kid Tiger at the Open. Very cool and a very good choice of songs.

 

Many people aren't aware, but this was Nike's, too ...

 

I thought this was pretty (haha) fun. Then McEnroe's line appeared.

 

The "Joga Bonito" campaign from the last World Cup, emceed by soccer's answer to Ulf Samuelsson, Eric Cantona.

 

My memory has probably faded, but I swear they once interjected March Madness highlights in this during one NCAA tournament. With rights and such, I could be wrong.

 

I thought "Lamar Mundane" was Nike, but it was Reebok. Man, saw this commercial a million times.

 

OK, so technically this isn't Nike, but it is Tiger and it is pretty damn cool.

 

I never saw this follow-up commercial until just now. Pretty good.
