Cubs keep dreaming in Nuveen's billboards
Fallon, on behalf of Chicago's Nuveen Investments, has done a pretty nice job of capturing the essence of being a Cubs fan, particularly given that the agency is based in Minneapolis. Still, the ad above (“Look at it this way: If you’re a Cubs fan, the greatest day of your life is yet to come”) may seem a bit optimistic. Sure, the Cubs currently have the best record in baseball, but the sportswriters there are already jinxing them. The outdoor ads, at least for now, are appearing only inside Wrigley Field; see a bunch more after the jump. And Cub fans, click on the images for wallpaper-size versions.
