Make the chicken dance, and well, other things not so nice
Tags :Technical
The new Burger King ad is coming out for the
web. (yes there is a technical edge here) I heard about this
on the radio the other day. They took a bunch of shots of a man in
a chicken suit, fill it into Flash and you can tell him what to do on the
net. Unfortunately someone reverse engineered it and found the developers
put some very nasty things in there. The man-in-chicken suit was
supposed to shake his finger at those not so nice suggestions.
No matter what you type,
the chicken will attempt to do it for you. Hop on one leg, lay down, stand
on one leg, watch TV, etc. Try typing do the hustle. Obscene suggestions
are rewarded by the chicken coming close to the camera and making a
no-no sign with his, er, fingers.
It just so happens that the developers
were ready for you. You can read more here
and even see the darn main-in-chicken suit here.
Apparently they had 1 million hits in a day before the site even
went public through announcements.
