In 2019, Burger King decided to sponsor Stevenage FC, a tiny football club in England sitting at the bottom of the fourth-division league table.
Most people thought it was a terrible idea. But just one season later, it turned into marketing gold with the launch of the Stevenage Challenge.
The promo dropped on the same day EA Sports released FIFA 20, daring gamers worldwide to make Stevenage the biggest team online.
