A funny find on YouTube. This is a World Cup 2006 Pepsi Ad which plays on Oktoberfest Bavarian traditions (or are they stereotypes?).

In the ad, several famous soccer players (Beckham, Ronaldinho, Raul, Henry, to name a few) arrive at and Oktoberfest-like celebration except it’s called Pepsifest and includes big mugs of Pepsi and lederhosen. The players show off their great talents and skill, but the real kicker (no pun intended) is the interpretation of Trio’s “Da Da Da” by the Germans.

The ad is part of a Pepsi promotion which will include games and player-branded cans. So far we know it’s in Thailand, but sure it’ll appear in other places. You can read more details in this press release.
