WASHINGTON — A whole new generation of consumers will want to “be like Mike” thanks to Gatorade’s effort to breathe new life into its popular 1990s ad.
The “Be Like Mike” commercial featuring Michael Jordan, which ran in 1991, is back with a blending of its original footage, updates to its catchy music and animation.
The series of three new “Be Like Mike”-inspired ads aired during the NBA All-Star Weekend and were published on YouTube Wednesday.
The ads are part of Gatorade’s 50th anniversary celebration.
Two other ads in the series encourage athletes to “Move Like Mike” and “Dream Like Mike.”
