Since the industry is affiliated with a lot of blood, sweat, and tears—all in the name of achieving a personal dream or the ultimate title—romantic sports campaigns are not a common sight. Except on Valentine's Day, that is, as Chicago's sports teams set in the mood for love on their respective social media platforms.
One romantic sports campaign that definitely stands out is featured on the Chicago White Sox's Twitter. The shareable V-Day cards spotlight team players Tim Anderson and Eloy Jimenez, with subtle references to the world of sports and their experience. For example, Jimenez's picture boasts the words "ex still wears blue," which is a reference to the Cubs who traded him back in 2017.
Other teams that contributed to cheeky romantic sports campaigns include the Chicago Cubs, the Chicago Bears, and more.
