International sporting events draw so many eyeballs that companies make it priority to get their products and services featured at least once during the big game; these 2014 World Cup ads are a few examples of what it takes to make the cut. From typical product hocking to inspirational campaigns and everything in between, there is a huge market to be tapped when it comes to the biggest soccer event of the year.
What these 2014 World Cup ads show is that while the sport may be dominated by a specific male group, such occasions become bigger than themselves, inviting other demographics in very exciting and enthusiastic ways. It is only natural, then, that such campaigns be as heartwarming as they are epic and masculine. Of course, there is no denying the fact that the latter rule the field.
