My current favorite commercial.

Have you seen the IHOP commercial that starts out with a couple on a ferris wheel? They get to the top, and the ferris wheel stops, and the chick says, "We are SO HIGH!!" Then it shows a bunch of circus type people going to IHOP for Funnel Cake Madness or some such shit. It's exactly the kind of crap that people who actually ARE high would totally jones for. I've gotta give mad props to Madison Avenue for this one. Very clever.

That fcuking commercial drives me crazy. I hate it. I hated it so much I actually WROTE IHOP to ask them to mercifully remove it. It's terrible-- especially the black dude with that lame ass forced chuckle. Disturbing it is that you find entertainment in the steaming pile of dung.

Does anyone have this full, original unedited commercial on google video or youtube or something?

I remember the chick saying, "We are so high!" And I died laughing every time. I really need to see it again. Post a link or something if you got it. Or if you have it on a tape, stream it somewhere and share the wealth. LMAO!

Commentor #2: Unfortunately, no You Tube or other video available that I know of.

Commentor #1: It's not that I found the commercial entertaining, per se. What I loved about it was the OVERT reference to being high...because really, that's the only way that anyone would find that funnel cake crap they were pushing appetizing in the least. I think it's AWESOME that you wrote them about that commercial. Man, it must've pissed you off.

Commentor #2 here again...

I really need to watch it in its full glory. I see it still on the air on Fox Family or something and they totally skip that part every time. It sucks.

Do you remember the guy's face after she said that? He looked so damn scared and paranoid! Ha ha ha ha!

Man, I'd PAY to see that commercial again!
