Elephants!



Plus some other fun ads.



Even if you don't speak the language, this delightful Spanish-language ad will have you humming about elephants all day. It is based on a much beloved Hispanic nursery rhyme about elephants dancing on a spider web. The spot's gag is a word play -- the driver misreads an invitation to a posh social affair as requiring 'elephant' clothes rather than 'elegant' clothes. No matter, he and his friends go into the ball floppy ears and all." (from adage.com)
