Freakiest Advertising Moment of 2007: Round 1, Vote 10.
See all previous votes here.
Here’s the full 64-team bracket.
Here are contenders 37 through 40.
37. MTV’s pubic-hair/boobs promos. MTV’s cast of oddball characters is its “Maturity is overrated” campaign included Zit, Pubes, Nips and Boner.
38. Bluefly’s exhibitionists. Bluefly let it all hang out to promote its fashion Web site.
39. Toohey’s rockabilly corn people. A farmer plucks a hair from his pompadour, plants it, and grows a field of magic corn husks, which contain beer-drinking maniacs. Must be an Australian thing.
40. Michel Gondry’s trippy Razr 2 spot. The inside of a cell phone becomes a rocking hipster fantasia for one Razr 2 owner.
Vote below for the freakiest of the four. Voting goes until 11 p.m. EST Wednesday, and the winner advances to Round 2.
UPDATE: MTV rocks the vote, advances to Round 2. See the voting results here.
