In a new ad campaign for Oreo cookies, the Williams sisters and the Manning brothers have decided to test their athletic prowess competing for the Oreo Double Stuff Racing League.
This fictional league—and competition—takes cues from the different ways consumers eat Oreos. At the Nabisco website, users can compete as animated versions of the celebrity siblings.
By participating in the faux sport, the Manning brothers and Williams sisters have drawn tongue-in-cheek comparisons to other two-sport athletes like Bo Jackson, Deion Sanders and Michael Jordan.
