‘It’s good to have wood,’ says Six Flags Mr. Six, ex-Six Flags spokestogenarian, will roll over in his latex costume upon hearing of this latest Six Flags ad. It’s for El Toro, a wooden roller coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey. Above an image of Bugs Bunny (who has his own play area at Six Flags now), the headline reads, “It’s good to have wood.” (That camera-phone pic is courtesy of reader Jason K., who saw it in New York’s Penn Station.) Newdaddy, who stumbled upon the ad in Port Authority, writes on his blog, “Now, I’m not disputing the truth of that statement. But does an erection joke really need to be side-by-side with Bugs?” You can watch Six Flags’ promotional video for El Toro here, where they invite you to “climb aboard El Toro and hold on tight.” —Posted by Tim Nudd

My my... sometimes i can't help but wonder if the creators of the ad just really didn't notice the... ahem, pun... ? they couldn't possibly have realized it and still thought it was a good idea - COULD THEY?

Why u people have no lives and complain about ads. Please, lighten up. It's funny, kids won't understand it. Stop sucking Jesus' cock and go ride El Toro at Six Flags Great Adventure it's the best ride you'll ever go on. And yes it IS good 2 have wood.
