Lovtsy Zhemchuchuzhiny (Pearl Hunters)

The story began with David Beckham, or to be more precise with an outdoor advertisement at the Ryazansky avenue. There was David Beckham on the billboard and the text wrote: ‘We declined him’. Signed: FC Zhemchuzhina Sochi.
Such an outright provocative advertisement had done its part and journalists began to ask what this meant and whether the photo of David Beckham was placed legally.
The Moscow City advertisement, information and appearance Committee had to interfere. Alexander Menchuk, the first deputy chairman of the Committee, said the billboard was not going to be dismantled. “In terms of creativity it’s a very beautiful idea”, - Menchuk added.
