BOSTON Sign Boy, the wacky fictional fan of FootJoy golf apparel, is back causing trouble in four new commercials from Havas’ Arnold.

The 30-second spots, which break Feb. 8, show Sign Boy hamming it up with pro golfers including 2002 British Open Champion Ernie Els, Phil Mickelson, Davis Love III, David Toms, Brad Faxon, David Gossett and Ty Tryon.
