Super Bowl Bust

The most irresponsible ad run during the Super Bowl, in my opinion, was the 30 second spot for the Amp energy drink. This is one of those ads that makes me wonder what the discussion was like in the boardroom when this idea got pitched to the executives.



I'm curious what your thoughts are.

Well, they definitely weren't looking at the sex appeal.

They were probably wanting to define stupid in a new way. But please don't try that at home, as those were professionals paid to be stupid.

I already envision another stunning episode of "Dare Dieter" trying this one.

Daniel...very interesting. It definitely got my attention. I don't know. I just would envision an energy drink being advertised for more natural purposes rather than to start a car plugging yourself up to jumper cables.

I can't stop laughing. Well, if nothing else, it was funny. But believe me, I don't think I want to try that drink!

The sad thing about this commercial is that, someone adventurous teenager just might try and do this.

Is it a bad thing when the first word that comes to mind when watching a commercial is "OUCH!"?????
