Craziest Ad Campaign
In honor of Paul with the Whopper post, this came to me. What has been the craziest or most outrageous ad. I thought of the Herb campaign to start. If my memory serves me right if you visited Burger King during a certain time in the 80's and seen a man named Herb you would win money and food items. I do not think anybody outside of the ad ever saw this mysterious Herb character.

HULABURGER
1963, McDonald's He really should have been thinking of the Filet o' Fish ( which came later ) but, instead, he put a slice of grilled pineapple on a hamburger bun. McPIZZA - McDonald's offer pizza through driv-thru and no flavor. THE BURGER KING and HIS PISSANT FRIENDS Who remembers the Duke of Doubt, Sir Shakes-a-Lot, and the Wizard of Fries? TACO BELL BEEFER a cheeseburger in a tortilla KITCHEN FRESH CHICKEN We're all supposed to forget the word "fried," don't you see? LONG JOHN SILVER'S LANGOSTINO LOBSTER A langostino isn't a lobster. It's a spidery-legged relative of the hermit crab. Passing it off as lobster is like referring to a particular piece of meat as "cat cow." STUMPING OF KENNY on a November 1997 episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, a blindfolded Kenny Rogers failed to identify his own chicken, instead picking charred fowl prepared by the NBC commisary. JACK IN THE BOX" BECOMES "MONTEREY JACK'S 1993 saw some major image challenges for this American burger chain. Four people were dead from E.coli poisoning in Seattle, and the happy Jack In The Box was starting to look a lot like death itself. A quick cosmetic name change just resulted in confusion. They went back to the Jack before you could say "loss of market share." LOST IN McTRANSLATION Who would have thought that "Finger Lickin' Good" becomes "Eat Your Fingers Off" in Chinese? A Domino's Pizza commerical in Guatemala wins the insensitivity award: "We realize that you work like blacks so naturally you will eat like cannibals." Honourable mentions must go to Wendy's, for their consistent inability to implement a breakfast menu ( they also fired "Where's The Beef?" lady Clara Peller after she did a Prego commercial ) and Carl's Jr., for their soft core porn ad campaign featuring a purring Paris Hilton lathering up a car, and, for the record, what does Popeye have to do with chicken, anyway? He's a sailor, man! |
