**************
Mike And Spike's "Hang Time"
Feb. 21, 1988
Remember Michael Jordan? (He used to play basketball.) In this Nike spot--Jordan's breakthrough commercial outing--he banters with fast-talking, worshipful Mars Blackmon, played by Spike Lee, who also directed the campaign's 11 subsequent ads. Funny and slick, it set the standard for creative sneaker ads and launched His Airness' career as the most successful celeb pitchman of our time. Says Jim Riswold, the spot's copywriter: "I remember Spike saying 'You better start making more shoes 'cause you're going to sell them all.'" They did.
