Gary Busey, Vitamin Water and AP take on Crazy Internet Commercials

Time to Collect, cayote meat that is!

A couple weeks ago I told you about the K-Swiss internet commercial that featured DNP-CD favorite Kenny Powers and how I thought it was the first commercial by a major corporation to take advantage of the lack of restrictions online.  I had for years said that HBO should showcase super offensive commercials from companies that don’t really need business from mamby pamby school marms that complain about the shit and fuck balls words.

Now Vitamin Water, a company that has also used old Kenny as a spokesman for a special flavor made for curing hangovers (something I’ve had to drink on occasion until I realized I could just put vodka in it and kill 2 birds with one stone) has taken the same approach to commercials.  But not to be outdone with a fictional crazy man, they went to the well spring of all crazy, Gary “Juggalo Fucking” Busey.

They did a couple things that I didn’t like, which was not let Busey loose, there is no language or even anything mildly offensive in it, which was probably a requirement for having Adrian Peterson and Shaq in it.  Which is too bad, I would have just gone with fake athletes and let Gary at it, because it’s fairly obvious that Gary had no idea that this wasn’t real and that he’s not a lawyer now.

I would also like to say that the porn star looking secretary was a big win along with letting Busey scream out “Remember the Alamo” as he rushed into the room, which happens to be what Busey says every time he takes a shit.
