Bud-weis-er? :P

I didn&#39;t realize we were going back in time&#33;

In that case, I would have to vote for the Frank and Louie commercials.

Especially when they teamed up with the ferret&#33; :wacko:

Mountain Dew&#39;s " Do the Do " campaign. Especially the one where the cyclist outraces the cheetah, tackles it and reaches down it&#39;s throat to pull out the can of Dew. The cat&#39;s &#39;puter-generated stunned expression is hilarious &#33; :D

My favorites are local ones.

Theres one in South New Jersey for a radio show, where an old lady sits on a bench at the park, and while listening to rock and roll she says, "WHy nothing could be worse than that&#33;" Then an old man in a thong gives her a lap dance&#33; Its funny as hell.


And the best of all time is another radio show one, in upstate NY, for Pyx106 www.pyx106.com , where their cover girl dances in her underwear. Tis awesome, and it will be the best non nude video youll ever watch. Downlaod it at the site&#33;

Wasn&#39;t that for Pepsi Max, not Mountain Dew? I kinda remember if due to one of the guys going "see? that&#39;s why I&#39;m not a cat person" :D

But to keep on topic - Yeah the Budweiser frogs were great, but IMO the lizards took it better :D That little plan with the ferret was the icing on the cake :D ("Look at me&#33;" "How can you look at me - Turn away&#33;" :D)

That, and the recent John Smiths ads; bloody marvelous :D

In the US it was definitely a Mountain Dew commercial. http://members.roadfly.com/tite-wad/thumb.gif

I&#39;ve never even heard of Pespi Max so obviously there wouldn&#39;t have been a commercial for it here.

More than likely Canada had the same advert as we did.

However, the other continents/countries may have had something different. :unsure:

Put simply, think of Pepsi where all the sugar is replaced for some sort of sweetener, going much further that Diet Pepsi - That would be Pepsi Max. Not bad in moderation but when consumed too much it tastes like s***e ;)

I&#39;m surprised that the drink isn&#39;t even released in the US - The advert I was on about had a style characteristic to ads from the US :blink: If I wasn&#39;t being truthful, I see Mountain Dew here but very rarely. I wonder if Mountain Dew & Pepsi are owned by the same company - That might explain why two different products have similar ad.

Or it could be that it was originally the Mountain Dew ad, but the Pepsi Max ad team made a skit of it (I remember it being an set of extreme bikers in it and the one chasing the cheetah scorning it after grabbing the can - "Bad cheetah&#33;" :D)

To the hell with it - It was good anyway. If Pepsi Max really isn&#39;t in the US tite-wad, maybe I&#39;ll send you a multipak of some; let you experience the liquid crap we are sold :devil:

I have no desire to try Pepsi Max. You&#39;ve made it sound gawd-awful&#33; :o

There&#39;s a possibility that PepsiCo may distrubute Pepsi Max in other parts of the US - California for example - and we in the Midwest would never hear of it.

And yes, i believe Mountain Dew is a product of PepsiCo - as is Sierra Mist and others.

I think PepsiCo also owns Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Pizza Hut - among other things. :blink:

Trust me - I&#39;ve grown accustomed to Diet Pepsi and can&#39;t stand the regular stuff, but I&#39;d rather down it like water instead of the Max version :x

You sh**ting me that PepsiCo owns that much. I wonder if PepsiCo is the post-1900 name of the Illuminati...;)

I did a bit of "Googling" and found out my info was slightly out of date.

Turns out PepsiCo did own those chains, but spun them off into a new corporation called Yum&#33; Brands :rolleyes: in the mid &#39;90s. So technically PepsiCo doesn&#39;t own them any more.

Yum&#33; Brands also owns a couple of other restaurant chains. (See here) (http://www.yum.com/about/divisions.htm)

PepsiCo, however also owns Frito-Lay which I didn&#39;t realize before. (See here) (http://www.pepsico.com/company/brands.shtml)
