The pandemic has been an interesting case study in the power of branding, specifically Corona’s resilience in selling cases of beer.
Corona’s marketing team did wonders by partnering with Snoop Dogg on their “La Vida Más Fina” advertising campaign, which has helped amplify the company’s products across a few beer-drinking generations.
No matter how much Snoop Dogg gets roasted on Comedy Central or faded for his lackluster musical output in recent years, the man has cemented himself as hip-hop immortal with mainstream appeal.
He’s a welcome sight in commercials and a reason to feel good about drinking a Corona.
It seems an unexpected consequence has emerged from one of Corona’s promotional campaigns with the rapper.
People in the Philadelphia suburbs are stealing 3.5-foot-tall Snoop Dogg bobbleheads that have been placed inside grocery stores. Police said the bobbleheads stolen are worth approximately $300.
Corona actually had these bobbleheads manufactured by BDA Sports in three sizes namely 16″, 18″, and 43″. All three sizes seem to be fetching a fair amount on eBay and other auction sites.
One of the 43” bobbleheads is listed on eBay for $800, and another for $1,300. It’s unclear how many bobbleheads were made in each size, but they appear to be rare items and thieves are catching on to the opportunity.
Since the first incident, two more thefts have been reported in the greater Philadelphia area.
A third incident was reported in Bucks County, where the Northampton Township Police Department said Wednesday that a large Snoop Dogg bobblehead was stolen from an Acme in Richboro.
Based on news accounts, it doesn’t seem as if other parts of the country are encountering the same problem. Yet.
The hype for Snoop Dogg’s bobble head figurines are insane. Indeed, his spotlight is not yet dimming.
But why steal when you can create a bobblehead of your own?
