Best Sports Commercials of All-Time

Posted by ZA on December 2, 2008

Great commercials are part of the sporting events we love. The best commercials, and their products, stay etched in our minds forever. Here are a few of the greatest sports commercials of all-time and the products that they featured.

Nike – Air Jordans “It’s Gotta be the Shoes”

Spike Lee as Mars Blackmon with Michael Jordan. “Yo Money, It’s gotta be the shoes”.

Reebok – “Terry Take Office Linebacker”

“You know you need a coversheet on your TPS report, Richard” Classic!

Coca-Cola – Mean Joe Green

“Hey kid, catch.” A scene that has been often imitated over the last 30 years.


Nike Golf – Trick Shots by Tiger Woods


Rumor is that Tiger did that entire spot in one take.

McDonald’s – “H-O-R-S-E”

Mickey D’s hit a home run with this spot featuring MJ and Larry Bird.


Budweiser – Zebra Referee


Classic that aired during the 2003 Superbowl.


Nike Soccer – “Joy” featuring Ronaldinho


“Joy” is right, Ronaldinho has always been a pure joy to watch play soccer.


Gatorade – “Be Like Mike”


Michael Jordan at his finest. They could make a full length feature of MJ highlights and I’d watch it.

Which do you think is the best sports commercial of all-time?
Which company do you think has the best collection of sports commercials?
It’s going to be hard to beat out Nike and their brilliant ad agency Wieden Kennedy.
