I'm not going to lie, when I first came across this [Orange Tennis Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minute-maid-1) Ad I thought it was an endorsement for [Tropicana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tropcn) juice as their TV spots usually feature an animated orange. But after conquering my ADD and sitting through the 46-second commercial, I realized it was an ad for a gym, which made it that much more clever.

The Orange Tennis Club Ad is quite witty as it promotes their name in the most literal sense, though I suppose it would be pretty easy to create a smart ad like that if you had a color in your company's title. Unfortunately though, the Orange Tennis Club Ad didn't make me want to join their gym--it just made me [crave a glass of Tropicana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cravings-im-crushin-it).
