The Coca-Cola Worldcup 2002

For Coca-Cola and World Cup, we had to let football fans find out more about England’s new three-legged hero, Leggsy. Like all celebrities, his rapidly growing fame called for a Web site.

We promoted Leggsy’s site on the top six UK football sites. About 6.5% of their viewers clicked through to spend more time with Leggsy (as opposed to less than half a percent, which is the industry average).

A Who’s Who documentary, narrated by ITV football pundit Des Lynam, introduced the supporting cast, e-cards allowed you to plan World Cup parties and explain why you weren’t at work. Desktop wallpapers featured the other characters in the campaign.

Responsible for delivering over 70% of the overall traffic, and for keeping consumers occupied for over seven minutes, Leggsy was the big star of coca-cola.co.uk for the duration of the World Cup.

For the new football season, Leggsy made a comeback in Coke‚Äôs sponsorship of the football highlights in The Premiership on ITV. All the break bumpers were shown online, securing Leggsy’s celebrity status for at least another season.
