    The Paddy Power stuff always comes across as very try hard.

    Edge lords.

    Ryan Giggs' brother is featured in it. Ryan ran had an affair with his brother's missus. That's where the whole ''loyalty'' or lack thereof angle is coming from. It's a bit grim to be honest and basically not even that clever, just sh*t. OP must be a shill for PP or something.

    I love an auld bet, but hate all gambling industry advertising. It’s insidious, it’s everywhere, it’s cynical, and these organisations prey on their most vulnerable customers.

    Like look at this bollocks. The lads having the crack living the Ladbrokes life.

    Ah right. When I watched it first and didn't have a clue of the backstory so it went over my head.

    That's real bottom of the barrel stuff.

    im the same. I've been doing it long enough that i know how to avoid getting by brains beat in on a bad day and when i have a good day i cash out and buy myself something or go out for a nice meal. but when i was younger and got into it i used to chase losses, try to double up wins, back every race, etc.

    the advertising targeting young lads sickens me. you'll learn a lot of expensive lessons 'living the ladbrokes life'. and it's all over every event, the jerseys, ads around the pitch.

    i think all the ads should be banned.

    Ah here I never thought AH was as pc as this. Their social media basically take the piss on all topics outside of gambling. Obviously people may have different opinions and are entitled to but they really do go to the extreme on their campaigns, be it the billboards last week in Dublin for the England match, floyd May weather wearing their boxers to getting Giggies brother to do this. Anyways sorry for offending ye sensitive folk

    I like the real witty but subtle ones, such as the KFC twitter account, which followed 6 guys called Herb & five spice girls... 11 Herbs and spices, which is their recipe.

    Or this one from the Simpsons, which is actually a filthy gag but well disguised.

    It’s a better ad than most. Money for old rope most marketing is.

    Car ads. Man gets into car, drives car in a scenic location or two, parks car and gets out. Sometimes a woman does that. If it’s a family car he or she will meet the family at the end of the drive.

    This tells me that the car in question has a door which opens to let you in and out and can be driven. Since this is true of all cars I’m none the wiser about what to buy.

    Anyway in the modern streaming age I see very few of those ads.

    Their Marketing isn't "genius" it's just the shíte a bunch of folk could think up in a 10 minutes BantzBantzBantz session.
    Plus their Marketing team also signed off on sticking yer man Paddy in their videos and its so awkward.

    Their Twitter team come out with a few gems though.
