Super Bowl Sunday is not a time to get sick – especially if you’re playing in the big game.
We’ve seen tons of stories throughout the years of athletes persevering through injury or illness to play in the most important game, meet or match of their lives, and many of them have been in the Super Bowl. In a well-done marketing move, the marketing team behind Vicks created the following info-graphic about not letting anything derail you from playing in, attending or watching the game, as well as the best NFL stories that have the healing quality of a good bowl of chicken soup.
It even gives a shout-out for one of the only New England Patriots I can root for, fellow Western New Yorker Rob Gronkowski. A recent fan survey pointed to him as the best example of the Vicks slogan, “In the NFL, there are no sick days.”
(I’m a sucker for info-graphics, what can I say?
Very interesting polls there. Not sure that a football player would be my first choice for bringing me soup. But if i had to choose it would be Drew Brees. I would not trust Tebow to get the soup to me unless it is the fourth quarter.
