In this Marshawn Lynch Skittles commercial, the footballer shows off how he prepares for game day. In the past, Lynch has claimed that Skittles have been a hugely positive part of his football career since childhood, since the candies were offered as a reward for playing well. Now, fans bring the colorful candies to toss at the player whenever he scores a touchdown.
This ad shows Lynch working out with the aid of Skittles, most impressively, lifting hundreds of them over his head in a clear set of weights. Since Skittles have always been a treat that comes after something good that happens during a game, it's fun to see how the Skittles candies can be a part of the process that makes those touchdowns happen.
