Dos Equis Marketing Whiffs The Big One

5 Jun

I usually love the commercials that Dos Equis puts out. Someday I will find a poster of The Most Interesting Man in the World and put it up in my bedroom so that I can bask in its glory. This marketing company has definitely hit some home runs in the past.

Alas, the Mighty Casey has struck out.

They have launched this customer driven game or competition…something. I was interested when I heard it at first because, let’s be honest, I wasn’t doing anything productive at the time. So I am listening intently and then I hear the prize for this thing and I about blew out the seat of my pants from shock.

The winner of this competition gets a FREE TRIP TO MEXICO!

If you haven’t been watching the news lately, let me fill you in. Mexico sucks. Even Mexicans think Mexico sucks. Which is why they want to bring their Mexican culture to America, so they can still be Mexican without having to actually live in Mexico. Plus, they get free healthcare and cheaper college than I enjoyed, but that is beside the point.

This is the point: Why would anybody want to go to Mexico?! I’m from ARIZONA fool! People from my state are told to lie about where they are from if they go to Mexico!

This is what people in Mexico think of my people:

Turns out the Most Interesting Man in the World was just a pied piper for rich white people to unsuspectingly walk into the ultimate gringo kidnapping/ransom party in the history of Mexico/Central/South America (which really is saying something because I’ve heard some crazy stories.)

Here’s a tip: Stay the blank out of Mexico my friends!
