Not all advertising is bad

[greatbear]

As usual, Budweiser's Clydesdale commercials to me define smart advertising. Rarely if ever do they pitch a product directly, if at all. Instead, they stand as little vignettes with entertainment value all their own. This time, I think they outdid themselves.

Clydesdale American Dream

Be sure to check out "Super Fan" and "The Wave" too.

The American Dream one was better than Beaches.

Was this commercial on that big badminton tournament this afternoon I heard about?

Ping pong. With the egg-shaped brown ball.

I like the nod to the Dalmatian, from my other favorite Clydesdale commercial involving the firemen and the Dalmatian pups. Since I lost Patches, I sometimes get choked up when I see the dogs.

Totally agree. It made me laugh out loud. I enjoyed the others, but that was *brilliant*.
