Adidas Backyard Legends: the football version of the 'fish story' that brings nostalgia, pop culture (yes, David Beckham's hair!) and a perfect streetball scene

---

Yay, adidas! This video reminds me of the narrative of the old "catching that big fish" story when the fish gets bigger and bigger with each version told. Kind of like these backyard legends, and who they challenge, all that keep getting larger-than-life (and funnier!)

It has nostalgia, street-to-superhero moments, pop-culture (Beckham's hair options!), to the ball-in-the-tree moment. The creative backdrop reminds me of watching streetball, NYC basketball near Chambers Street circa mid-80s. The fun bantering and car scenes are the best (Timothee Chalamet fan, here). Feeling you'll just love this. Doesn't everyone love a great "fish story"? (but substitute FIFA World Cup and a soccer ball). Video here or click on image.
