It’s Fake!

 

Maybe you’ve already received this in email.  It looks amazing.  Can you blame someone for forwarding it to you?  You may have even forwarded it to someone else. 

The truth is that this video is not real.  According to abc30.com, it’s part of a new viral Web ad produced by Gatorade.   The “ballgirl” is actually a stuntwoman, hooked up to cables for the extra footage, shot after a Fresno Grizzlies game in front of  about a hundred fans and players who stayed late. 

Is it just me, or are you tired already of viral Web campaigns that find new ways to deceive you?  Or, do you find them entertaining?

    Man I used to LOVE wrestling. Dad used to take me to the matches at Municipal Auditorium. I remember getting really bent out of shape when you, Suzie and HRB told me it was fake. Hilarious.

    That’s the first and only time, CT, I ever saw you angry. You know, they used to have some of those matches in the KTBS studio. In the mid 1980s, I interviewed Michael P.S. Hayes. He told me the P.S. stood for “Purely Sexy”.

    Good one, Tommy.

    I remember when the wrassler’s came to KTBS. They were actually really nice.

    Back to topic though, I’m kind of sick of fake videos and yet they keep showing up everywhere, even on the major networks.
