The inevitable Bud spot featuring those giant hairy horses intended to put a lump in your throat. Again, I don't get the fascination and depth of emotion that are supposed to attend beer and beer commercials. But in this spot, Hank the clydesdale doesn't make the cut to be on the wagon-drawing team (which I think would be good news, as in oh boy I don't have to pull that wagon and can just hang out and eat oats). So the dalmation pals up with Hank and as the Rocky theme starts crescendoing, the dog puts Hank through a series of heroic workouts. The ad culminates with -- can you guess -- Hank making the team the next year. Oh boy, now Hank gets to be harnessed to that giant beer wagon and drag it around. Hooray. |

I agree, Tom.
I'd rather watch the dancing lizards pumped up on fancy water.
