Of Big Papi
Red

With
D’Angelo Steak and Cheese Following Big Papi Throughout
the Day
DEDHAM,
Mass. (May
15, 2007) —D’Angelo Grilled Sandwiches will take
its message to the TV airwaves with Red Sox DH David Ortiz
for the first time in its three-year relationship with the
slugger. The commercial, created by Boston-area ad agency
Boathouse Inc., stars Ortiz and D’Angelo’s talking,
life-size Steak and Cheese sandwich following Big Papi through
his daily routine. The ad’s message is that the
D’Angelo Steak and Cheese will follow you throughout
the day until you satisfy your craving for it. The commercial
will air for the first time on Thursday, May 17 throughout
the Boston and Providence DMAs on all the major networks and
cable TV stations, including NESN.
Throughout
the commercial, Ortiz’s thoughts and routine are stopped
throughout the day by the Steak and Cheese, who is constantly
on Ortiz’s mind. Big Papi and the D’Angelo
Steak and Cheese make appearances in Boston , most notably
in the Red Sox locker room; Ortiz’s SUV, and the Red
Sox underground batting cages. Images of the real D’Angelo
grilled-to-order Steak and Cheese are interwoven through the
commercial, which ends with the line, have you taken care of
your craving this week?
“We felt it was time to make a bigger splash with our product and message,” said
Michael McManama, Senior Vice President of Brand Development for D’Angelo
Grilled Sandwiches and Papa Gino’s.
“Television was a natural marketing choice for D’Angelo
because of Big Papi’s charisma and the appeal of our sandwiches,
especially the Steak and Cheese. TV provides an opportunity
for our guests to see and crave our complete line of grilled,
toasted and cold sandwiches.”
