Reebok launched an unusual product in the USA during the month of July: bacon, to entice more fans of one of the most beloved pork products in the world for the sport. The original operation created by the agency Venables Bell & Partners.
Whereas Bacon is one of the foods banned in most sports diets, this live marketing action can be considered risky for traditional patterns.
