Dave: If you took a poll right now, I’m pretty sure that more than 50% of Americans would know who AIG is. It’s been in the news way too much.

And I’ve heard a few stories of Man U fans getting the business for that logo on their jerseys or other gear. That’s all I’m saying. It might have come off as hyperbole in the post, but it has happened.

I’m surprised AIG is still signing sports sponsorship deals, but seriously, Dave, enough with the hyperbole already. The vast majority of Americans still don’t know what AIG is, and those that do aren’t going to be yelling at someone just because they are wearing an AIG sponsored ManU jersey. The only people doing any yelling at people wearing ManU jerseys are football fans who hate ManU.

Great post. Dave. In general, this is the issue with any sponsorship… it’s only as good as long as the sponsor has credibility. Once that’s gone, it’s value is moot. And I would say, AIG (or any company in similar straights) might consider where to be spending their money these days.

So George Bush is a Richmond “supporter” …who would have thunk it.
