El Toro to unleash its freaky party animal
 I’m surprised the new ads for El Toro Tequila didn’t go with a “Mess with the bull, get the horns” tagline, but I’m also relieved, because that would have been stupid. Instead, we get some nice educational lessons about how to make el rim shots (above) and play something called bull puckey. (A Web site, ElPartyAnimal.com, goes live later this month.) Given what I’ve heard about tequila, other lessons might be good for future ads, like how to remove puke stains from a carpet. How to rock out might be a good one too, given El Toro’s mascot, the mythical half-bull/half-devil-horns creature that so enthralled young men 21-34 in ancient times. And of course, don’t let them change their name. I haven’t seen anything that lovably corny since Cabana Boy Rum.

I thought el rim shot was some latino porn move when the guy jizzes on some beckoning corn hole. And no, I couldn't make that any more graphic.... oh hell you know I could. :D

Two points- one, that last comment was disgusting. Two, who is the agency behind these ads?
