Wow, lots of bees
flying into a bar and buzzing around a bottle of whiskey: it seems like some
kind of nightmare DT scenario. (Apparently people suffering from delirium
tremens tend to hallucinate insects and such, from what I’ve read.) But nobody
gets stung, so it must be just a hallucination after all! Otherwise nobody
would ever go to that bar, I shouldn’t think. (But I have to wonder how many
people’s DTs will feature these CGI bees after they’ve seen this commercial.)
Hey, I’ve got a great
idea for the next Jack Daniel’s Honey commercial: Have two guys sitting at a
bar order shots of Jack Daniel’s Honey, and one of them is wearing a bee keeper’s
suit. Well, they both drink their shots, and the one guy asks the other one why
he’s wearing a bee keeper’s suit, and he says: “You’ll find out…” And then the
bees come swarming into the bar, land and crawl all over the guy without the
bee keeper suit, and he freaks out and they sting him to death. Then the
announcer could say: “Everyone’s all abuzz about Jack Daniel’s Honey!” (No?
Doesn’t work for you?)
Okay, then maybe
Jack Daniel’s Honey could sponsor a remake of the great classic
disaster/horror/nature’s revenge/bad movie The Swarm. (No? Not a
good idea either?)
Here’s the buzzing booze bit:
