NEW YORK, March 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Lay's makes watching football better, but imagine watching it with your friends and seven-time Ballon d'Or award winner, Lionel Messi! The four-time UEFA Champions League winner and FIFA World Cup 2022 Champion takes the brand's "No Lay's, No Game" platform to the next level – starring in a new fun-filled and exciting commercial titled "Messi Visits" and appearing on Limited-Edition Lay's chips packaging to commemorate the "No Lay's, No Game" movement celebrating the UEFA Champions League.
The special edition bags, featuring football greats, including Messi, exhibit the key elements that make the UEFA Champions League one of the most exciting sporting events on Earth: incredible athletes, passionate fans, and a global audience. The limited-edition bags showcase the dynamic energy that the athletes bring to the beautiful game. They will be available in the United States, South Africa, Poland, and other nations throughout the entire UEFA Champions League tournament through June 2023.
The "Messi Visits" TV commercial starring Messi is available to watch now!
In the spot, Messi is the unexpected guest at a UEFA Champions League party when he shows up unannounced, but celebration turns to distress when the legend asks, "where are the Lay's?" Watch to find out how supporters, and one furry friend, reacts to the legend's search for his favorite salty snack.
The emotion and humor are heightened in the content thanks to a hilarious original music record aptly titled, "No Lay's, No Game" performed in parody of the power-ballad "All By Myself" by Eric Howard Carmen.
"If you are well prepared, you have more chances to play your best. The same goes for all fans who love watching football, gathering their friends and sharing Lay's. This is what the new Lay's commercial is conveying with a little humor. Matchday is never complete without Lay's! No Lay's, No Game," said Lionel Messi.
Adding to the "No Lay's No Game" platform featuring the brand new "Messi Visits" content and Limited-Edition packaging, PepsiCo's Vice-President of Marketing, Global Food Brands, Ciara Dilley, said: "It's unthinkable to watch football without Lay's, and it's unthinkable to leave Messi out of the 'greatest of all time' conversation. That's why Lionel was the perfect partner for the "No Lay's, No Game" platform and why Lay's has been teammates with him for many years. He's an icon of the sport and with Messi's help, the "No Lay's, No Game" movement will unite fans over the simple act of sharing Lay's."
