TB Quest: Find the missing Super Bowl Commercial

Sign in to disble this ad
Ok, sometime in the late 90's or early 00's, Anheuser Bush ran a Budweiser or Bud Light commercial, and I'm pretty sure it was during the superbowl. A guy who looked like maybe a South Pacific Islander in native garb is on the beach, and a bottle of beer falls out of the sky and hits him on the head. He falls into a dream where a Bo Derek-type babe is running towards him, and the camera pulls back from his unconscious face and he has a big grin on it. Flash ahead... he's showing the bottle to his chief, and trying to explain what happened. Bottle falls from sky, hits chief... nothing. Six pack falls from sky, hits chief, nothing. 12 pack falls from sky, hits chief, nothing. Finally, a keg falls from the sky, and the chief is out cold with a silly grin on his face. Flash ahead, Chief is holding staff with beer bottle on top like a holy object and the tribe is partying and drinking beer.

Anyone remember this? Can anyone find a link? All I can figure is someone got all offended and the massive AB machine decided to wipe this commercial from the face of the earth before all South Pacific people or Bo Derick-types quit drinking their product.

Sounds familiar.

Isn't Bo Derek the one who made it OK for white girls to get cornrows?

It is NOT ok for white girls to get cornrows, but yes, I believe Bo Derek is the one who made people THINK it was ok for white girls to get cornrows.

I never heard any super bowl till today, and it sounds interesting i am really crazy about it and thinking how this seems. But as the name denoting super bowl so i hope it would something different to other & in the other words we can say it would be antic one.
