In the late 1970s and early 1980s, what, America demanded to know, does Pete Rose smell like? There's a comedic charm to this era of athlete advertisements.
Rose compiled Shaquille O'Neal-level numbers in advertising, selling everything from Hungry Man dinners to the Atari Home Run video game, showcasing his remarkable pitchman skills.
Even after his playing days, Rose remained a prominent figure through commercials that highlighted his comedic persona, much like his memorable antics on the field.
As a pitchman, Rose embodied the colorful advertising style of his time, able to command attention just as effectively off the field as he did on it.
