Pepsi are well known for coming up with bold adverts featuring today’s hottest footballing stars. Last week they released their latest advert ‘Blue Card’ in which two everyday delivery guys get the surprise of a lifetime when they end up playing a dream pickup game with some of the top players in the world.
Featuring Sergio Agüero, James Rodriguez, Vincent Kompany and David de Gea the ad sees the players passing the ball and scoring a goal, all with the idea of taking the time out to have fun as well as embrace the unexpected.
Why are we bringing you this news? Because the grass they are playing on just happens to be Trulawn! That’s right, the grass we have installed in thousands of homes across the UK is the same grass played on by some of the world’s finest footballers!
As huge football fans the team were excited to install the grass and see the players in action. Pepsi shot the commercial in December and now that it is has been released we can finally talk about it. The team installed over 1000sqm in a day at a warehouse which with a helpful bit of green screen has been transformed into a stadium.
Take a look at the advert below:

What do you think? Pretty fun right? It’s great to see the final advert and play a part in the legacy of a legendary ad campaign. In a lot of ways this is no different to any of the events that we have provided grass for in the past. A client needed quality grass that would look great but would also be safe to use.
These were even more important factors with such high profile players running around on it and for an advert that will be seen all over the world. Trulawn were able to provide as well as install in a timely fashion – all the things you need for a short term event.
If you want an attractive, reliable surface for events or grass that is fit for a footballer all year round then why not get in touch? Call us on 0800 2100461 or contact us via the web!
