Another Old Spice Man?
On Wednesday, August 25th, The
San Francisco Chapter of The American Marketing Association announced
they were going to hold a meeting called "The Old Spice Phenomenon: A Panel Discussion On The Advertising Genius Behind The Old Spice Re-branding," On Wednesday, August 25th at 6 PM, at BARS+TONE, 1550 Bryant St, 11th Floor, San Francisco.
Thinking the panel might fail to discuss the cultural significance of having an African American man wearing next-to-nothing be a corporate brand symbol, and figuring that because I'm in Georgia and will not return in time for the SF AMA event, this blogger created the video above, and
wrote another blog post, thanking Old Spice Man for his historic first

Remember, there have been black men who have pushed products, but not shirtless and certainly not to so many rave reviews.
Old Spice Man, along with President Obama, make shirtless brothers cool.
And as women of all colors dig Old Spice Man, we can say racial barriers have come down to a dramatically low level in America.

my full blog post on this, and tell me what you think
...about the milestone, I mean.
