SUMMARY
After a 5 year hiatus, Burger Kings King was reintroduced to the world at the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight. One month later, the King stole the show at the Belmont Stakes moments before American Pharoah became the first Triple Crown winner in 37 years. Burger King reinserted a dormant brand icon into pop culture and delivered the best strategic media buy of the year with The Kings return, consequentially sending shockwaves through social media, driving massive lifts in brand conversation and contributing to a record breaking year for the business.
