Heineken |This Is the Game

Heineken is celebrating its sponsorship of the Rugby World Cup, being held in New Zealand, September 9 to October 23, 2011, with “This is the Game”, a television commercial focusing on the code handed down from warriors of old. “Yes we wear dresses and yes we dance but this will never be drama class. We will respect a man’s anthem even he murders it. Never question the bounce. Who knows where this odd ball will go. Listen to the whistle man no matter how much he blows. Sleep when we are dead…” The 60 second “This is the Game” ad is supported by 10 second commercials ideal for play during the games, and an iPhone app “Kick Live Goals”.
