Has an ad for an app been edited into this meme?

I didn't notice it at first, but yeah. Why on earth would someone do that? It seems like such an inefficient method. Like, I highly doubt this picture is going to go viral or anything.

If this is a screenshot from a televised event (idk anything about it so idk if it is) it may have been done as processing for TV. They do it in the NHL with TV airings. They’ll cover the ads on the side of the arena with other ads more relevant to viewers not near the arena.

For example if Pittsburgh plays Edmonton at Edmonton. Edmonton has a bunch of ads for businesses in the Edmonton area but not Pittsburgh. So on TV they’ll digitally cover them with another ad that is either something nationally acceptable or local to Pittsburgh.

If it was that it'd be suffering from the same compression artifacts as the rest of the pic.

That ads is too crisp and in a weird angle.

But it's from an event from 2009. Were they doing that back then as well?

[-] Uprise42@artemis.camp 1 points 1 year ago

Probably not. I know nothing about the origin of the picture. I just wanted to provide some alternative. Idk why someone would put an app in the back of a picture completely irrelevant to it. It’s pretty crappy and really not good marketing.
