This Follow Up to Bud Light’s Super Bowl ‘Up For Whatever’ Falls Flat

I don’t know. Give this next chapter of Bud Light’s Up For Whatever entry a view. To me it just comes of as if it were an overzealous ad school student version of the original. If you recall, the brand launched a celebrity-studded version of this ad during the Super Bowl in which the likes of Don Cheadle, Minka Kelly and Arnold Schwarzenneger along with One Republic show one guy an epic night.

In this second outing, a couple of guys, Jesse and Luis, get to hang with NBA All Stars Alonzo Mourning, Karl Malone, Penny Hardaway, Bruce Bowen, Darryl Dawkins along with Benny the Bull and experience a basketball lover’s dream.

It all falls kind of flat.

Psychology says adults who describe themselves as socially awkward aren’t lacking a skill — they’re often people who never learned to perform inauthenticity smoothly enough to pass, who find small talk genuinely difficult not because they have nothing to say but because they can’t quite make themselves say things they don’t mean, and in a world that runs on social performance that specific form of honesty looks, from the outside, exactly like a deficit
