Burger King, showing up in unusual places.

Spanish soccer team Getafe introduced their new jersey last week, and the media’s judgment was swift. You can’t just put a Burger King logo on a jersey without getting a bit of criticism, apparently.

But that’s not the first time that Burger King’s logo has showed up in an unusual place. I’m reminded of this classic image from the Associated Press’ Chris Tomlinson back in 2005, on Burger King’s first day in Baghdad’s Green Zone.

My favorite part of that image: the “We accept all major credit cards” sign in the background. Like our troops have been carrying around a MasterCard through the desert all that time.
