Ah, the old “red x”

Preview is your friend.

They probably should have checked the sales of Absolut in the US vs. the sales of Absolut in Mexico before publishing this ad. Hope they are happy with the result.

Nice....I was looking at this at MM’s, and thinking about a photo-shop thing...like making entire Central America “Bud Country” than..thinking further...we don’t really want that. Maybe a pic of the border fence sponsored by Bud.

Sometimes the link doesn’t support remote hosting, and the preview loads from cache.

Delusional grandiosity is a hallmark of alcoholic behavior.

Eventually, there’s going to be a war.

welllll absolut just fell off the “buy” list for a number of parties and festivals.

Absolute NOT!

Crap vodka for a crap ideology. Makes sense.

Four vodkas to just skip: Absolut, Skye, Smirnoff, and Grey Goose (Oh yeah, I said it). Stick with Ketel One for your mixers, folks.

TBWA/CHIAT/DAY.

Kinda makes ya think they were consuming way too much of their own product when they made that ad
