27 reasons to love the Hootie spot
Need further proof that young males love the bizarre, raunchy Burger King TenderCrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch ad, with its campy set and sleazy women? Look no further than this mildly disturbing (and possibly not safe for work) tribute site: Brian Z sure thinks the Crispin Porter + Bogusky spot is “hot,” and judging from the site’s copy, he’s bought the hefty sandwich, so the ad worked. AdFreak can’t help but wonder why Mr. Z felt he had to go into a 27-point demonstration about why he loves the commercial so much (reason No. 16: “Gentle Flowing Wind. That light breeze makes all of the women look so much hotter”), but to each his own. And Brian is hardly alone in finding the spot intriguing.
