They feature a variety of athletes, but you’ll notice they’ll never feature an Olympic athlete that’s performing in the Olympics at that time, that’s against IOC regulations. They’ve made an impression because people really do see Subway and they associate that with the Olympics. Panasonic was the sponsor of the 2012 Olympics, but Beats by Dr. Dre sent headphones to all the athletes to wear while they were there. Any coverage you saw of athletes on their downtime, they were all wearing these headphones, and that translated into lots of sales. EXAMPLES Nike was not a sponsor of the 2012 Olympics (Adidas was). But, Nike got more coverage and people talked more about their green volt shoes than anybody else. Plus they earned a lot of extra dollars because people were running out to get those green shoes that all the track stars had.
