Tonight I was watching the Finns skate against the Czechs. It was a decent contest, but Finns had my boys pretty much outclassed. My Bili Tigri goaltender gave up three, but that doesn’t reflect the chances the Finns had. None of that matters.
I have noticed in a few international matches that Garnier Fructis, the shampoo, is a major sponsor. At first this struck me as odd. In general, hockey fans are not the crowd I’d be selling fancy shampoo to.
Unless…
Fructis Mullet formula.
Pay dirt, baby.
We gotta get Jagr to grow back his mullet – stat!
Actually, that Fructis is pretty good stuff, and it’s not all that expensive either — a shade more costly than Suave, but far less expensive than L’Oreal and just as good.
Of course, having hockey sponsored by a hair-care company is a little weird.
Why not shampoo? You were expecting…perhaps…toothpaste? Only pL or Keith would be that silly.
And here I thought mullet formula shampoo was a joke.
