Nike’s 2001 commercial, “Tag”, has been inducted into the Hall of Fame at the 2010 Clio Awards, held in New York City last month. The commercial, which features a man who’s been tagged for a giant city-wide chase, was one of three commercials released in the “Play” campaign, alongside “Shade Running,” and “Tailgating.” “Shade Running” shows a woman dodging the sunshine in the streets of Manhattan. “Tailgater” shows basketballer Terry Crews tailing an unsuspecting businessman. Tag was awarded with Grand Prix for Film at Cannes International Advertising Festival in 2002, while “Shade Running” won a Gold Film Lion and “Tailgating” won a Bronze Film Lion.
