GoDaddy's commercial showing supermodel Bar Rafaeli making out with a chubby rosy-cheeked nerd got all the attention following the Super Bowl. All the uproar surrounding the ad overshadowed the absurdity of another equally upsetting commercial, its own make out scene included.
Most people missed the commercial, as it only aired in three separate towns in Texas, Oklahoma, and Montana, but now the Old Milwaukee beer ad starring Will Ferrell can be seen by anyone online. It's one of the most bizarre commercials ever, lacking any meaning and leaving the viewer unsure whether to laugh or stare blankly at the TV screen.
The comedic timing of the ad is on point. One joke is revealed after the next, repeatedly going in a direction least expected by the viewer. The commercial also raises a lot of questions, like why does Will Ferrell make out with an older lady on a public bus? And for such a long time? Why Old Milwaukee?
One excited piece of news that can be drawn from the commercial is the inclusion of Ferrell's bushy mustache. Ferrell is currently filming "Anchorman 2," the sequel to the timelessly hilarious first "Anchorman." The sequel has been highly anticipated for years, and this commercial proves that its time is near. The movie will be released October 21, 2013.
Old Milwaukee also posted a similarly odd, but not as creepy, commercial last Super Bowl that only aired in North Platte, Nebraska. In addition, another ad from the series was also aired in Sweden.
It's unclear why Old Milwaukee chooses to air these bizarre commercials to such a small, limited market, but they're certainly making a splash on the Internet. Perhaps it's paying off.
