Stride Gum claims to be ridiculously long lasting gum, so naturally, they created a ridiculously long lasting banner ad to match, and it was so good, it’s just picked up a webby award for it!
The banner ad challenged users to click-and-hold the target area for as long as possible in order to win $500, meanwhile throwing in all sorts of distractions and random movements to try and throw you off course. And as intended, the World’s Longest Banner Ad had a ridiculously long record of 46 minutes and 27 seconds… A world record I suspect? Great in-banner gaming concept.
Nice. Was there support for this banner? Did it click through to a microsite where more of the story was offered up?
Very good; great way to engage in a banner ad, and brilliant pastiche. Which agency did it out of interest?
