Apparently, Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Garnett will appear in a Footlocker commercial during the Super Bowl. But that’s not the news. It seems the folks handling Footlocker want to guarantee viewership of the commercial by embedding a “secret website” address promoting a contest in the spot and telling everyone about it by seeding a “hidden camera” video in which the “secret” is revealed. Oooo. Get your TiVos ready everyone. This one’s gonna be a doosey! And, like, no one has ever done this before either so that’s what makes this so, sooooo cool!

Rip into this farce with the rest of your industry mates on the Adrants forumor in comments here..
