Make the chicken dance, and well, other things not so nice


Tags :


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.
