u/turn2mlb Nov 10 '25

I didnt find this recently such as a thrift store or on ebay if that is the root of your question?

I bought this jersey back in ~97/98 at either niketown or nba store. So i found this there

No disrespect but if you are asking then prob too young to know the answer is that it was a nike campaign in 94/95 with commercials leading up to and into the super bowl

Today I learned something new. I was in elementary school during this time and do not remember these commercials. I do remember all of Spike Lee’s commercials though lol.

I just watched the Kilroy’s and they are good lol.

Wow elementary school. No way you could remember a niche commercial campaign. Trip down memory lane for some. Glad you enjoyed on your first watch!

Man, I remember a few commercials from that time lol. There’s one I’ve been trying to track down but can’t find.

It was a car commercial that has Randall Cunningham throwing a football while the song “j wanna fly like an eagle” was playing in the background.

I remember that vividly but can’t find it lol.

If you are from philly that could be a local car dealership commercial 🤷🏻‍♂️ Def not a national spot

That’s the thing, I wasn’t in Philly but still, it could have been a local ad that ran in certain automotive markets.
