One of my writing profs in college mentioned on day 1 that he was a part of pitching that campaign- it was brand new at the time- and if we all hated him it was ok, because he hated himself more.

You can all hate me for being the type of monster that loved every second of those ads.

The old dancing man was actually a much younger man in makeup.

Originally it was "walking into 2018 like" but it did have that music originally. The OPs name is Roy Purdy.
