Holiday Inn Campaign Highlights Strange Behavior

holiday_inn_hottub.jpg

Every once in a while a campaign comes around that's so good you don't notice you're watching a commercial while at the same time you do. Yes, I know that's weird but this Holiday Inn campaign fits that description. The eight spots feature a group of guys on a business trip at a Holiday Inn and touches on all the odd, weird, embarrassing, squirmy things that can happen when a bunch of guys get together on a business trip. From awkward hot tub moments to odd fanboy moments to no one's here so we can be weird moments to moments mistakenly observed to be homosexual. View the whole campaign here.

Steve I'll agree with you, they are pretty good. I watched all of them and they did put a grin on my face. Now I could see the first three seconds of any of them and think Holiday Inn.

The comic timing of the guy playing the trio's superior is superb. Chances are these spots were written with him in mind, as this character is not that different from the one he played for Geico.

These spots are great. These dudes get even more wacky at http://www.holidayinnpromotion.com/workhappens/

There is a game based on that uncomfortable half-naked-men-in-a-hot-tub situation and you can make them dance in all their unrhythmic glory.
