Funny Pepsi Commercial

The commercials we watched in class about Baby Carrots got me thinking about the other funny commercials I’ve watched over the years.  Here’s one of my favourites…

I found this commercial extremely amusing, as it wasn’t immediately clear what the kid was trying to do at first, at least to me.  In my opinion, this was a very successful advertisement.  I may be biased because I had always preferred Pepsi over Coca-Cola, but this further put Pepsi in my good books, and made my perception of Pepsi even more favourable.

Looking back at it today, I realized that this commercial was rather daring and unorthodox for its time.   It looks like it was produced a good many years ago, and only recently have I really started seeing commercials single out a competitor by name.
