|
M&M/Mars came out with a new advertisement for Snickers, but as soon as it came out, a certain special interest group protested and it was pulled.
Quote:: |
The ad, created by Omnicom Group in London, features an effeminate man power-walking who is shot at by Mr T from a Snickers-firing machine gun mounted to a jeep.
Like previous ads in the campaign, Mr T finishes by telling the man to “Get some nuts!” |
Can you guess which group protested?
I would have liked to have seen it. Is it posted on the net anywhere?

They showed that here in Aussie, but I haven't seen it for a while.
That "spethial Interethst" wouldn't by chance be the "shirt lifters", as opposed to the "skirt lifters" would it ?
I like it.

I want that Snicker's Gun.
Just think of the possibilities.
That guy that "T" was shooting at, had to be a liberal the way that he walked.
