- taeric 3y agoThis feels very late to the party? For one, I'm pretty sure hosts on daytime game shows have done this level of endorsement for a long time. My personal favorite crazy point is how many of the supposed "improvised drinks" for celebrities are almost certainly not. For some true hilarity, watch any press conference of Alabama's football coach and see a perfectly placed coke every time. I seem to remember a handler coming out to fix the label for so that it was aligned to cameras on occasion. I have a vague memory of some nascar thing where a handler was changing the visible hat on a driver for the different networks. Can't find that in a search, so may be imagining it. :(
