Christmas Tree Causes Mayhem on the Road

allstate_mayhem_douglas_fir.jpg

According to Allstate Insurance, you never know when mayhem will strike. Another installment from the Leo Burnett campiagn has our friend, mayhem, taking on the role of a Douglas Fir. A happy go lucky family is out for the evening picking up their Christmas tree. On the ride home, unbeknownst to them, the three comes lose from the top of their car, falls to the road and causes another car to crash.

The talking tree informs, “If you have cut rate insurance, you may not be covered for this.” What a Merry Message for the holiday season. But, as we’ve seen before from Mayhem, mayhem can strike at any time.

The work is a nice tie in to the holiday season and it’s an entirely probable scenario.

Psychology says the boomer generation had almost no cultural language for social anxiety or introversion—you were shy or you weren’t, you needed to push through it, you’d grow out of it—and the people who didn’t grow out of it simply learned to manage it well enough that nobody saw it, and arrived at later life with a perfectly functional social exterior and an interior that still finds every gathering costs considerably more than it appears to
