The Economist Gets Cocky with the Bulls

The Economist brought its dry, mischievous humour and trademark red to Dallas, TX for three days. Fake bulls — labeled “Real Estate,” “401(k)” and “Stock Market,” respectively — were propped up in the middle of an inflatable arena.

Across the bottom of the ring, alongside The Economist logo, is the question: “How long can you stay on?”

Thousands of people apparently saw; a few even tried riding them. You know how those Texans like their meat.

Playful, witty and wildly relevant. By BBDO/NY. Thanks to @haikalsiregar for pointing us to it.
