To get the most out of its most current Mancave ad campaign, Alltel launches … wait for it, wait for it …

The Mancave.

By manufacturing a sense of animosity allegedly felt by those “other” wireless guys against Alltel, the burgeoning mobile company hopes to lend the sense that it’s, if not bigger, then at least more chill than its hopelessly pre-pubescent, nunchuk-toting contemporaries.

Requisite MySpace at WirelessThugz.com. You get the picture.

It’s really cool that all these online brand communities are launching to back up these funny little ad campaigns, but how does traffic actually get to any of them? How are they actually leveraged? After the death of bud.tv, we remain nonplussed.
