This candy-bar ad really brings me back. To a time when I was an impressionable, tow-headed scamp, and every day was an adventure. A time when I wore short pants. A time when my musical tastes hadn’t mutated into what they are now and I could tolerate the pablum droning on in the background. And also, that time I watched The Sandlot, because this ad pretty much recreates one of the film’s subplots. Ah, to turn back the clock.
