'Eat like snake,' says Triple Whopper ad

I imagine that just finishing a Triple Whopper from Burger King would be hard. Eating it in one giant, furtive bite, after slithering around on the cafeteria’s sticky floor, is a real achievement. I have no details on when or where this might be running. Via The Consumerist.

Funny enough, I saw this just the other night on, I want to say ABC, but it might've been NBC. Unfortunately, YouTube was down, so I couldn't find it.

Thanks for the link so I can freak all my friends and co-workers out.

I don't know which is more disturbing, the spot, or the fact that it might actually cause people to buy a Triple Whopper.

Was on during season premier of South Park ... which was also awesome.

Yeah.

It's a rip off of a Miller Lite radio spot that won a radio mercury a couple years ago.

Literal line from spot: "No chew. Just swallow. Like snake."

Somebody please find link.

Here's that link. Y&R radio spot for Miller Lite.

Now there's even a dedicated website for this video. Check it out at ...

That website is funny, but it does seems like something Crispin would manufacture as a viral component of their campaign - all the way down to the tacky home-made design. I've been faked out by them one too many times to buy into it as "user-created". I smell a micro-site.

Tim
Would someone tell Mr. Eatlikesnake to take his dumb website and dedicated email address and shove it up his "Snakey" ass. The spot is bad enough, but his web site truly sucks. As I've posted all over the place, is CP+B turning into Jackass III?
