Video: This Election Needs to Happen Already
- story THE FADER
Everyone of course remembers the Whassup dudes from Budweiser’s 1999 ad campaign, a series of commercials which eventually led to Grandmama saying that shit when we called her on Christmas 2001 (late pass). They were the definition of cultural ubiquity, memes, viral advertising, internet takeover, etc etc that was the big talk of pre-gnarlytimes USA. Those same dudes are back and have created a darkly comic remake for our present day America which has each of them representing an issue our next president will have to face. And then they give their endorsement. A friend of ours told us about this commercial over the weekend and then he and his 4-year-old son said Whassuuuup back and forth for several minutes. Some things change, some things don’t. Vote in ONE WEEK, PEOPLE. (spotted at The Stencil)
