Xgames - odd social media presence

[sethoscope]

Not to jump on the xgames hate train but recently the xgames instagram page has been super weird. I understand they are trying to be funny and “quirky” and reach multiple types of audiences, but I just think it’s kinda corny. I have some screenshots of the stuff I mean, what do you guys think?

I'd cut them some slack, it's not like they have a mountain of content to draw from

They are tagetting foot fetishists… or people that love high heels.

Toe people will loose their minds. They are attracting people who normally wouldn't give a shit about "extreme sports."

This is what a decade of diversity hires will get you.

This is a one off post referring to a post from Moncler showing a dude holding a snowboard, where the bindings were totally wack. One foot was angled the completely other way. I thought it was a funny jab.

Xgames doesn't have to cater to serious fans all the time. All is fair in the love of the sport, and that includes psuedo marketing to get attention.
