Several billboards are erected across the U.S. with the following message:

Ever wanted to hear a virgin talk about Nintendo? Well, you're in luck!

His followers then unsubscribe en masse due to how in poor taste the stunt is.

They hide actually shape-shifting mechanical robots in zoos disguised as animals. When they transform, the real animals freak out and go on a rampage.

Random briefcases are dropped in public spaces so that crowds would fight for it, and that the one who currently possesses it would be the one that announces the start of the match itself.

They fill helicopters with crates full of meatballs and fly around the city, dropping them on people's heads. They end up arrested for reckless endangerment and wasting good food.

A huge animatronic boar rampages across Australia. It ends when it's taken down by some angry Aussie who fights way scarier things than some overgrown pig wanker on a daily basis. The marketing team is arrested for causing disruption.

They make cross-promotions with Kool-Aid, despite the properties having next-to-nothing in common.
