FirstBank, Ode to Millennials "No Pants" Regional Super Bowl 50 Commercial


The branding approach, atypical for FirstBank, aims to bring in new savings accounts from a generation that is famously savings-averse. The key insight, based on services such as Airbnon, Car2Go, was that Millennials do “save”; they share.
The spot runs regionally on the Super Bowl in Colorado and in Arizona. After that it will appear mainly on late night and sports programming.

"Millennials, are you the most money-saving savvy generation since the Greatest Generation of the 30’s and 40’s? Perhaps. You certainly enjoy sharing things – bikes, music, cars, streaming TV logins, even pants – apparently. We like to think you do this to save money, but the truth is probably closer to your generation being the most inclusive, most open-minded and the friendliest. So FirstBank is giving you a Mile-High salute during this year’s big game."
