Nike’s new film, “Shout,” debuts today as the Oregon Ducks take on the Michigan State Spartans in East Lansing. As outlined below, the spot celebrates the longstanding relationship between the University of Oregon, its fans and the seminal 1978 film “Animal House,” in which Otis Day and the Knights originally performed the song “Shout.”
The Nike “Shout” film replicates the famous “toga party” scene from the original 1978 movie, with actors replaced by notable University of Oregon alumni, including: actor Ty Burrell, ESPN anchor Neil Everett, pro football legends and television personalities Ahmad Rashad and Dan Fouts; former pro football players Joey Harrington, Kenny Wheaton and Anthony Newman (current Ducks football commentator); decathlon world-record holder Ashton Eaton; Oregon track star Galen Rupp; professional football athletes Marcus Mariota, Dennis Dixon, JJ Birden, LaMichael James, Kenjon Barner and Brandon Bair; former Oregon track stars English Gardener and Mandy White.
Check out the “SHOUT” film below, and for those that attend all Oregon home games can look forward to seeing this video being played at each one.
