Tango Bravia Commercial

danger @ 2:03 pm

The Sony Bravia advertisement with the multitude of coloured balls bouncing down a San Francisco street was an instant success and also did José González’s career no harm. Well, Tango have made their own tribute commercial.

It would appear that Swansea North Residents Association is not happy about this at all.

Returning from church hall last Friday (17th) we witnessed the aftermath of a destructive TV commercial film crew. The damage (smashed windows, bent car aerials and broken garden ornaments) was caused when several tonnes of fruit was dumped. JUST TO SEE HOW FUNNY IT WOULD LOOK BOUNCING DOWN THE STREETS OF SWANSEA NORTH!

The “Tango” drinks brand did nothing to clear up the slippery mush they left behind (which contravened several health and safety laws). And would only respond to Association Secretary Steve with a statement: “Sometimes you have to make a mess to dramatise fruit refreshment to the consumer”. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!!!

But that could easily all be part of the marketing.

  4. You suspect correctly, at least three websites have been setup as part of the campaign.
