Have to agree with Golden. There was a spate of commercials with Ashley Wagner in them but not so much anymore. Some of those companys bet on the wrong horse at Nationals. I think Gracie is very marketable, even if she doesn't win an Olympic medal. At her age - she's the future of US women's figure skating. Polina still needs alot of polish and some of the girls coming up the ranks are jumping beans and don't have the finesse yet. And no, I don't think Mirai is going to figure into this even if she keeps skating.
Hi, noskates.
I don't think marketers have forgotten Wagner by any stretch. During the Sochi Games, I have seen Wagner's Hilton ad quite often, also the Team BP ad, and I don't recall exactly what else.
I would think that Wagner's sponsors also are feeling fine at this point. She also is taking home an Olympic team medal.
(I didn't mention Wagner in my post above only b/c this thread is about Gold.)
