Apple alludes to Oilers in ad

Apple is running an ad on Instagram and Facebook that says simply, “Siri, play La Bamba” in Oilers blue and orange text.  Curiously, the video of the ad was posted to Apple’s Facebook page yesterday about the time the puck dropped for Game 5, and the Oilers won.  Coincidence?  I think not.

See the ad here.
