Gatorade hits a home run with Quest for G

Gatorade hit a grand slam with their Quest for G campaign microsite. Not only do they have an online component to the popular “What is G” TV campaign, they created a fantastic entertainment masterpiece. King Garnett and his gang of knights go on an adventure spoofing the famous Monthy Python film “Search for the Holy Grail” for the Holy G. The sight is entertaining and refreshing. 

Not only did they relate to sports fans, they tapped into the loyal following of Monty Python. Several of the comments about the videos are about Monty Python rather than a drink or Gartorade. Taking athletes out of their elements and playing on their attributes was a perfect execution for Gatorade. This site has raised the bar for branded microsites.Refreshing original content along user comments You can check out the great work here.

If you don’t like Monthy Python, the site also has freestyle hip-hop videos, animated hip-hop music videos and the G Manifesto. The G Manifesto shows all the people in the “What is G” TV campaign.

Overall the site is amazing display of creativity and utilizing all the web has to offer.
