STOKING THE FLAMES OF ASHES BANTER.
19 Crimes welcomed cricket fans to the Brisbane Airport for the 2nd Ashes Test with a cheeky billboard stoking the flames of one of the world’s most fierce sporting rivalries. The name of the Australian wine brand comes from the list of 19 Crimes that saw the British banished to Australia as convicts in the 1700’s. The Barmy Army (touring English fans) love to remind Aussie’s of their “convict” connection but here the word was owned to celebrate the (then) current score in the Ashes series.
