The Puma 'After Hours' Commercial Makes Athletes out of Partiers

— August 23, 2010 — Fashion
The Puma 'After Hours' ad captures the evenings of several revelers having fun. There are people bowling, playing pool, throwing darts and even playing ping-pong, proving they are just as normal as you.

The commercial aims to sell Puma shoes to non-athletes -- or, as the commercials phrase it, "after-hours athletes." If the Puma 'After Hours' commercial is telling me that I am an athlete because I go bowling and come home at dawn, then I am the Lance Armstrong of nightlife.
