Taken literally, Kirshenbaum Bond & Partners’ first three TV spots for Kansas City Power & Light are about barbecuing, jazz and football.
One stars a happy-go-lucky ribs eater named Dan, another, a 50-something jazz buff named Dorothy and the third (shown here), a gelatinous local football fan known as “Belly Boy.”
Dan ineptly smothers meat with barbecue sauce, Dorothy barely plays a saxophone at a jazz club and Belly Boy, well has a large belly and shouts a lot.
