Teams lucky enough to host the Yankees this season have presented Derek Jeter with farewell gifts, columnists have produced countless tributes to him, and so have his sponsors.
Now batting: Gatorade.
Now batting: Gatorade.
Unlike Jordan's #RE2PECT commercial, this Gatorade commercial doesn't seem staged at all. It captures natural fan reactions to Jeter walking to Yankee Stadium, and shows him interacting with fans too. It's a great 90-second spot and pulls on your heart strings, especially if meeting Jeter was your childhood dream.
Make sure to retweet the following tweet for a chance to win one of these sweet commemorative Jeter bottles. Gatorade gave me 10 to give away to my readers.

More info from Gatorade:
In addition to the commercial, on September 22 during the Yankees homestand against the Orioles, the Yankees dugout will feature Gatorade coolers, cups and towels with altered No. 2 logos in place of Gatorade’s G.
