The God of Product Placement
Syracuse University staff and students were a bit perplexed the other day when a statue dedicated to Ernie Davis, the first Africa American to win the Heisman trophy, was wearing a pair of shoes with the prominent Nike swoosh logo.
It seems the Nike company wasn’t even around when Davis died of leukemia in 1963.
It can only mean one thing; that a huge corporate giant has figured out how to travel back in time!
Consumers and art lovers alike can now look forward to Michaelangelo’s David wearing Levis, the Mona Lisa holding a can of Coke and Jesus in the Last Supper sporting a T-shirt with an arrow that points to Judas and says “I’m with stupid.”
