Wink Beer on the Moon!!!

Sign in to disble this ad
As I was driving home a couple nights ago, I hit a fairly long stretch of road where I was driving towards the moon, and I thought "It won't be long before someone tries advertising on that thing." The very next night, I saw an ad for this!
What are your thoughts on "Moonvertising"?


Side note: Who's bright idea was it to have a horse head as the logo for a beer? Is there some kind of back story or joke that I'm just not getting? Is it some kind of sobriety check? -"If you find this logo attractive, you are drunk!"

Well, I tried Mapquest, and after several unsuccessful attempts, I can confirm that I am indeed lost.

It's probably similar to that "laser graffiti" thing on Youtube, but from satellite.

Speak for yourself, less-that-visionary.

I'd like to take this time to announce that I will be auctioning off naming rights to the moon. No one else had the brains to secure them, so you can now throw your bids my way. If at anytime it is determined that another person or entity has indeed claimed the moon's naming rights, you can safely assume I'll be taking their sooner ass to court over the issue. I'll be releasing details on the how and when over the next few days, so stay tuned. If anyone even thinks about reporting me because I'm not a supporting member but I am openly selling the naming rights to the moon, kindly eat **** and die.

Mike

As long as it is ads for beer, sports cars, and lingerie... I say go with it.

Well, if you thought a horse head was bad, we have Moosehead beer in Canada.
