This is just sad I think they got the two ladies to do these commercials for the Slingers they have out now because they have smaller hands. The Slingers are the size of sliders and would look that way if those guys were doing commercials handling them. I noticed on Sonic's FB page they don't have any guys holding them in pics on there either. I did see one post from a customer who ordered two, got home and found out there was no meat/mushroom patty on either of them. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/25450-fast-food-ads/page/7/#findComment-4220090

Silver Raven June 12, 2018 Share June 12, 2018 Domino's Pizza is running an ad showing their pizza bouncing around inside the box as it's being delivered because the driver is driving on bad roads, and they say that if you contact them, they will go out and fill the pot holes in your area (and then put their logo on them). Even before I saw the ad, I had seen an article about it on a news site. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/25450-fast-food-ads/page/7/#findComment-4408628

Reviving something that was painfully annoying at the time is an odd advertising strategy, but this is a commercial that touts the shit-water that is Budweiser as a terrific addition to an already ho-hum burger, so I guess logic does not apply. All it did for me was remind me Budweiser had previously unleashed on the airwaves something even more obnoxious than Dilly Dilly. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/25450-fast-food-ads/page/7/#findComment-4463512
