Most fans learned about Paul Walker’s passing Saturday night (a few on Sunday), so when a Cool Water by Davidoff ad ran during the U.K. broadcast of the Chelsea vs. Southampton yesterday afternoon — some fans were really upset. I’m sure this was an innocent mistake (we hope). Should it have been pulled?! Details after the jump & weigh in on what you think….
Via TMZ:
Awkward moment during a huge Premier League matchup today … when a cologne commercial featuring the late Paul Walker ran during the live broadcast of the game — leaving several fans wondering, WTF?
Walker had been a spokesperson/model for the brand for a while.
But the timing of today’s commercial couldn’t be worse … considering it hasn’t even been a full 24 hours since Walker passed away in a fiery car crash in Southern California.
Immediately after the spot ran, several fans went to Twitter to vent.
