The crowd is cheering and your state’s baseball team is one point ahead of the opposing team. If the other team doesn’t get at least one player home, you win the World Series. You see your favorite pitcher spit out a green-ish brown blob of something unrecognizable from where you are sitting, but you disregard it and continue watching as he winds up for the potentially winning pitch. What you don’t know is that is by the time the next baseball season rolls around, your favorite player won’t be there in person to celebrate his team’s first win of the season. The esophageal cancer that he obtained from chewing that “green-ish brown blob,” known as chewing tobacco, will be at high risk for spreading throughout his body if he does not treat it, and he can no longer play due to chemotherapy sessions that drain all of his energy. All over the country, athletes just like that pitcher face the same consequences due to their constant chewing of tobacco during sporting events and on the field.

Cigarette smoking has been a favorite past time for many Americans. Since the early 1960s, movie stars, models, and our favorite television shows like the Flintstones presented its main characters smoking cigarettes. Then, people began to get sick; lung cancer, throat cancer, heart diseases, and many other diseases were linked to cigarette smoking. The signs and warnings were everywhere.

The ad with Hornung uses the window effect, showing the picture of Hornung looking lay back and relax to make people aspire to become like him.
