Carling reaches for the stars

by Garrick Jones

This ad from Carling is an absolute gem. As a person who occasionally makes the trundle to a club for a night out with the boys this really appealed to me.

I think we've all had the unfortunate experience of reaching your destination for the evening's upcoming festivities, only to discover that one of your mates has failed to meet the dress code requirements be it collared shirt or smart shoes (I am yet to meet a female friend who has had this problem, but that's a story for another day).

This ad highlights the situation in the most fantastic, comical way with a certain “Armageddon” flavour. It is absolutely hilarious while still making one really think about your friends and the relationship you share with them. After viewing it over and over again, I cannot wait to send this beaut off to all my mates. In terms of viral value, the fact that it is so relevant while being so entertaining makes me believe that it's a winner. 

Do yourself a favour and take a look:

Hey Gay-J!
ya, its pretty good hey. Gives you the warm fuzzy feeling (unlike when your mate takes the piss of your, "unhygenic room" on his company profile at his new job)
