Detroit Pistons Reinforce Sporting Mentality Stereotypes

detroit_pistons_guys_night_out.jpg

In what has to be the worst sports team promotion ever created in the history of sports team promotions, the Detroit Pistons are out with a video promoting Guy’s Night Out. Complete with horrible acting, cheesy music, ridiculous copy and infomercial-style visuals and supers, does nothing but cement outdated stereotypes of sports-crazy idiots and their bitchy, whining wives.

One can only hope the goal of the work was to create something so horrific, it would achieve “so-bad-it’s-good” status. If that’s the case, though well-intentioned, the creators have failed miserably.
