Mountain Dew enlisted The Graffiti Kings to make a mural of the Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl and Jackass star Johnny Knoxville on London’s most famous graffiti spot.
Why?
Mountain Dew asked its Facebook fans to vote on their “greatest heroes to immortalize” and the winners were painted onto the Leake Street Tunnel. The Graffiti Kings then made it a reality. They created the 10ft by 12ft murals using over 1,000 paintballs, 2 guns, 30 gas canisters, and some incredible talent.
All of this coincides with Mountain Dew’s new street artist obsession. They’ve also asked their Facebook fans to submit their own virtual street art pieces as part of a contest. The winner will get £5,000 and a job as the brand’s official street artist.
