Epic Win: Bud Ice Penguin Commercials

Nov. 7, 2009

Submitted and Written by Mike, flightless drunkard of a bird

Introduced in 1994 as “Ice by Budweiser”, it has more alcohol (5.5% ABV) than Budweiser. It is best known for an advertising campaign that involved a malevolent penguin that stalked Bud Ice drinkers and stole their beer.

Penguins really like to play beer pong. It’s a well-known fact.

Epic WIn: 7Up “It’s An Up Thing” Commercials

Submitted by Rahim G, clear, wonderful, lemon and lime

Way better than those “Make 7Up Yours” ads. Or at least less offensive.

The holiday-themed commercials from my childhood always seem to be a lot cooler than commercials of today! :)

Happy Halloween from Once Upon a Win. Some more Halloween commercials full of nostalgia win after the jump.

Epic Win: Joe Isuzu

Oct. 30, 2009

Submitted and Written by surrido.smile, faster than a speeding, well, you know

If you watched TV at all in the late 1980’s then you remember the infamous Joe Isuzu. The notorious car salesman whose cars were more amazing than anyone’s and he had no trouble rubbing it in (even if it was a blatant lie!). Although he would tend to overinflate the qualities of the cars*, there would be disclaimers pasted over the ads that would keep him in check.

*Famous quotes included:

“It has more seats than the Astrodome!”
“If I’m lying, may lightning strike my mother!”
“You have my word on it!”
