21: A Look Behind the Scenes of ESPN’s “Only in Fantasy” Campaign

The NFL season is right around the corner, which also means that fantasy football leagues are starting up again too. Since 2019, Butler, Shine, Stern and Partners (BSSP) has created different iterations of its “Only in Fantasy” campaign for ESPN’s Fantasy Football platform. Jake Bayham and Sinan Dagli, the Head of Strategy and Executive Creative Director at BSSP, respectively, join Camden on today’s episode to talk about the campaign’s origins in 2019 and the creative process for this year’s iteration. Listen in to learn why they decided to focus on the social aspect of fantasy football for this campaign and the story of the 49-year-old fantasy league they spoke to that inspired some of this year’s spots.
