Herb part 2

You know I don't think poor Herb even knew those two people....

Burger King herb ad's

In the mid-80's Burger King came up with a rather strange commercial campaign. It was based on making fun of some random made-up guy named Herb who has never been to Burger King. It seems that this fake American not going to Burger King meant that he needed to be mocked on nationwide TV.

Later Burger King send the actor that played Herb into various Burger King's and if a customer said something like "Hey your Herb dude" they got prizes. I like to think that The actor who played Herb was reluctant to give prizes and if a customer saw Herb in the middle of a Burger King Herb would start to run away and a chase inside that Burger King would follow. That last bit will always be the dream

The history of Mac Tonight

In the 80's Macdonald's started to be open late at night and I guess the ad guys wanted a hip new mascot that would make going to a Macdonald's at nite feel like going to a old jazz lounge club with french fries. So the world met Mac Tonight a puppet yes but this cat would not fit in with Ronald and crew. First of all Mac liked to drink martinis with a little olive on the top. This messed with ronald's straight edge belief's . Also Ronald just knew that Mac would knock up birdy and the clown was not having any of that.

In the mid-90's Mac Tonight disappeared (much like funny Eddie Murphy movies). He showed up again in Macdonald's ad's in places like Thailand. (much like Gary Glitter)You can just imagine that in Thailand Mac lives on a diet of martinis, pill's and whores, and telling stories in bar's about how he used to smoke up with the grimace. We wish him well.
