This New ‘Snow Day’ Nike Commercial Features An Army Of NFL Stars And May Be The Sickest Commercial Going


Genius commercial by Nike. Completely connects with us joe shmos. We’ve all had that feeling of waking up to a snowstorm and immediately calling our neighborhood cronies for a game of tackle snow football. We’d all gear up in our snow pants and gloves like we were taking the field for the Super Bowl, and we not hesitate to lay each other out because getting tackled was like falling on a temperpedic mattress. Tackling was the shit because everyone had so many layers on that it felt like we were bringing down the Michelin Man. Ah, the days. I played three sports in high school (shameless plug) and I received no more satisfaction from those years than I did playing backyard football during a snow day.

P.S. It has been reported that Ndamukong Suh kicked the camera man in the face. Don’t quote me on that.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
