Thread: What's wrong with this ad...

I get emails all the time from Spirit air since they have some really good deals. However I just got an email from them a few minutes ago. Take a look at the ad and tell me if im crazy, is it a bit distasteful. It doesn't really bother me but what do you think.

Is it bad that I got too distracted by the side pictures and didn't notice anything else?

Did you notice it is taking a poke at BP? Look at the words "Best Protection"..the B and the P (BP) are in bold, and a different color...guess they are peeved at BP< and yeah I agree, it is rather distasteful right now...it's not something I would make fun of...

I wouldn't have noticed the "BP" before you pointed it out...but when Iwent back to look, I saw that the sunscreen bottles they show use BP's logo colours of green and yellow.
There is not one "funny" thing about the BP catastrophe. But I'm guessing the risk mgmt ppl in the Spirit Air advertising dept decided the benefit outweighed the risks of running it.
IMO, pretty distasteful.
