My arch-enemy has resurfaced...
INT. NAMELESS ADVERTISING AGENCY - DAY
A group of advertising executives sit around a big conference table.
The state of North Carolina has asked us to come
up with a new campaign to get people interested
in their state lottery. It's for scratch-off
tickets.
(in unison)
Ugh.
CHIEF ADVERTISING EXECUTIVE
I know, I know. I'm not very excited about the
project myself. But in this economy, we can't
exactly turn away new clients. Anyway, they want
us to use a well-known celebrity, a trusted name
in the state. Any ideas?
OTHER ADVERTISING EXECUTIVES
(in unison)
Andy Griffith!
CHIEF ADVERTISING EXECUTIVE
Nope. They specifically stated NO ANDY GRIFFITH.
They feel he's over-played. Any other ideas?
Silence.
Anyone?
JUNIOR EXECUTIVE
(sheepishly)
Sir? I think I may have an idea...
And thus an ad campain was born:
So now I get to be reminded of how Ric Flair destroyed my dream job by watching him Woo!, wobble about, and trade barbs with a fellow senior citizen on my TV every twenty minutes.
Woo!
