The ultimate rivalry is currently unfolding on Fox’s NFL broadcasts. No, we aren’t talking about brash commentators, nor the drama of the Jets-Patriots match up. Rather it’s the action at the bottom of the screen, the face off between Fox Bot and BK’s The King that offers both hilarity and old-fashioned competition.

Created by agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky and Fox Sports, the animated billboards feature extensive animation and select motion graphics by Zoic Studios, which collaborated with production company Engine Room and House of Moves to deliver snappy mini narratives for sports enthusiasts.

The antics began with the launch of the NFL season and will continue through the holidays and Super Bowl with theme-appropriate trickery.
