McDonalds recreated the 1993 Super Bowl commercial, “The Showdown”, in “Check This”, a spot broadcast before the kickoff of Super Bowl XLIV, starring NBA stars Dwight Howard and LeBron James. The original ad pitted Michael Jordan and Larry Bird against each other in a trick-shot competition for a Big Mac and fries. Look out for the reappearance of Larry Bird.
