How to win at the olympics

[AndyRKett]

The tv ad breaks are getting ridiculous as we get closer to the Olympics.

So far things that advertisers are claiming will help you win/produce an athlete/improve performance include

Tampax perl (if you don't use them you can't compete apparently??)

Fairy liquid essential in the development of a new athlete

Olay essentials (not sure how this helps but it supposedly does)

And just seen an ad for an eppilator which will improve your synchronised swimming abilities.

What other stupid Olympic related ads or claims have you seen? Or any other stupid advert claims.

Or just have a rant about how much you bloody hate/love the olympics


Edit: just seen some of this stuff on the Olympic traffic thread.

Banking with Lloyds TSB and eating McDonalds is sure to help

Honestly, I see a slight irony in McDs sponsoring the Olympics (until 2020 at least)... and the massive (1500-seat) store they're building in the Olympic Village... I'm not even sure what to think!

With the tampax, they should put them at the finish line...whoever gets there first, gets to use it...to save embarrassment. Of course you would have to wait for all women to be on at the same time, and frankly the idea of that scares me!

Actually I was thinking more along the lines of all that anger and energy being put to good use to win - but I did laugh when I read this! Love that movie
