Drop That Chicken, Rev That Engine

Chicken Falling

KFC is out with a new spot promoting it’s popcorn chicken in a crazy chicken “roof drop” in an effort to both introduce the chicken and motivate people to submit their own television spots as previously reported. Also in this week’s Ad Age TV Spots of the Week, engines rip themselves out of the hoods of cars in a thirsty quest for Pennzoil, a cat attacks a zebra for Whiskas, a dude hangs a bucket from his mouth for Philips, Ford launches a classy spot for its new F-15-, a tongue dances in a stupid spot for Hi-C Blast, the Ad Council launches a 911 spot, and Old Navy promotes its Cargo pants with a ‘Soul Train’ spoof.
