Milwaukee's Best Light commercials during WSOP

private joker · #1 11-09-2005, 08:32 AM

Apologies if these ads have been discussed here before (I did a search and nothing came up, but I rarely visit this forum).

I have a logistics problem with this spot, and it does not involve the fact that Chris Ferguson is living in a refrigerator.

What happens is, every time the Hero goes to get Chris's advice, he makes up some excuse why he needs to leave the room. But then he goes to the fridge and gets a new can of Milwaukee's Best Light beer, and sits back down. If he's going to get a beer, why doesn't he just tell the other guys that he's going to get a beer? Why does he need all those wacky excuses? They see him returning from the fridge with a beer. It's certainly understandable that he's going to get another can (after all, this IS a commercial for beer), so he still doesn't have to reveal that he's getting inside info from Jesus while he's there.

It's very perplexing.

I assumed that there was a bet going amongst the buddies that any time any of them went for a beer they had to come up with a reason they were getting up besides getting said tasty beverage.

You have discovered the complexity and genius of the Milwaukee's Best Light commercials.

How does Chris know whether to HE or FE when he's inside a refrigerator and didn't see the hand? Of course, we didn't really see the hand either. Fascinating. Deep.

All that time with all that beer in that little fridge and yet Chris never felt compelled to drink any of it. Sure makes me want to run out and buy a case.

The event is pre-taped, he very easily could've interviewed every player about every hand to know in advance the correct play.

There is no toilet in the fridge, why would he drink extra in order to need to use a bathroom?

He's gonna have to go sometime anyway, might as well empty a can ahead of time.

How does he charge his cell phone battery?

See, if you grew up in the ghetto, you'd know the first rule of batteries: they recharge magically in the freezer...

He's in a fridge, not 8 tabling.

Empty a can.

Fill it back up.

Give it to the donk from the poker table.
