BK eaters engage in rampant 'polygameat'

Polygameat Oh good, another stupid marketing idea from Crispin Porter + Bogusky for Burger King. (It's been a few weeks, we were starting to worry.) This new ad, airing in the U.K., shows people protesting a man who practices "polygameat," the shameful mixing of beef, bacon and pepperoni in the not-so-delicately named Meat Beast Whopper. For some reason, women are the only ones up in arms about this. Terrific, more astute commentary on the gender wars by the same idiots who gave us the Manthem. Given the events in Texas earlier this year, this ad probably won't see the light of day in the U.S.

Hooray, another pun turned into a campaign from Crispin. Hey CPB, here are a few more you can use:

The SandWitch: She casts spells on people to make them want BK.

The ShamBurger: Don't be fooled by non 100% real beef burgers!

Tell a whopper: People tell the biggest lie they can to get their favorite sandwich.

Maybe that'll save you guys some late nights and weekends coming up with more punny brilliance.
