Video: Get Dunked On By Patrick Chewing

Learn to speak Snacklish.

As reported in last week’s NYT, Snickers is unveiling a new ad campaign centered around a new “language” called Snacklish. The candy giant is starting with a boom with this highly effective 15-second spot featuring the center formerly known as Patrick Ewing — now Patrick Chewing, when translated into the playful candy vocab. Chewing’s unkempt hightop wig and the too-tight jersey are the gems of this money commercial. Enjoy!

    I can’t believe Ryan did a commercial with someone besides Bron Bron.

    Celtics = 3 Muskateers, Dirk = Cadbury’s Flake, Iverson = Skor, Rasheed Wallace = Cadbury’s Time Out, and the Clippers = Reese’s pieces of turds.
    I think we got something here, fellas.

    Ryan looked like Chewing when MJ aka Butterfinger slammed it straight to his face… But Pat is awesome..

    strangely, when the backboard explodes, i feel like i want a snickers.

  • Bostwik

    Strangely, when Chewing is dunking he seems to have lost 50 pounds midair and regained them when he landed.

    But funny as heck though. I laughed so hard when I saw it the first time.

  • Tuomas

    Did it look THAT bad when Ewing actually dunked? Funny ad though.

    What is up with Pat’s hair? Hopefully that is not how he’s rocking his hair these days. He surely made enough scrilla to afford a decent barber.

    I’m so happy right now. This was just great.

  • clapzilla

    When I Saw This On TV Last Night Chewing’s Voice Was All Goofy. I Guess Now That I Hear It Again It Sorta Sounds Like Him. I Could’ve Sworn His Voice Was Deeper Though. If He Can Bust Backboards Like That Then We Gotta Get Him In The Dunk Contest!

  • JoeMaMa

    C-Webb should do a Timeout one

    Pat looks like a giant Luther Vandross—whose middle name was actually Ronzoni????

  • mumadone

    It would be nice to learn how to open a snickers wrapper like that.

    Good one Ryan Jones, in the name of the Steve Nash found “Pathetic attempts to get a charge” Club, we commend you. OOPS!

    I’ve literally watched this 20 times in a row, and it’s still HILARIOUS! Ewing nailed it.

    “copywriting genius, brilliant!!”

    Hope you’re kidding. I guarantee this is the idea the copywriter hated most and threw together at the last minute. It’s horrific.
