In the spirit of my Peanuts as Pitchmen series, and riding the wave of 80s nostalgia this week, I present another pop culture icon as product shill, and another favorite here at the blog--Pac-Man.
Here is a commercial for 7-Up from 1982 that features both Pac-Man and a jingle-ized version of "Bette Davis Eyes." You can't get more 80s than that.
Love Pac-Man? Love pasta? Then you'll love Pac-Man Pasta!
Finally, here is a commercial that is labeled as for Pepsi on YouTube but is in fact for some kind of online gaming platform or something. Being a Spanish language commercial makes it diffuclt for me to tell. It features an interesting way to present Pac-Man, however.
And thus wraps up a huge week here at the blog. I'm out of town this weekend, but I'll be here on Monday. Thanks!
