I’m a big Oregon Duck fan. And I hate this Dr. Pepper spot. But when you put the two together, it’s pure comedic gold. This cracked me up.

I am literally crying I’m laughing so hard at this. I honestly do not think there is a single thing they could have done better. The copywriting is absolute genius (apparently the writer has been tapped by Eastbound & Down, which stars Kenny Powers, to write for them. And the art direction is just as stellar. This […]
