If the crisps were integrated a bit better. They’re literally just at the side of the screen lol
I listened to a podcast with Ray Coyle, owner of Hunky Dorys, a few months ago where he talked about this.
The IRFU were extremely pissed off as the ad gives the impression that Hunky Dorys had some role in sponsoring the country’s rugby team. I mean it wasn’t entirely untrue… they were sponsoring a rugby team from *the country*…. Navan RFC to be exact.
Bonus of free attention stirred up by the outraged types at the time. A real win win for their marketing team.
I still have that calendar. Great wall art.
Lumber…we need lumber
I remember this ad for Paisean Faisean cause a bit of trouble too.
For the love of JC. How are the mods not stepping in on Tayto blatantly advertising all the fucking time here?!
mmmmm would love a bag of them right now
I was a tad offended by how unclever it is. There wasn’t even an attempt at a joke here. At least Paddy Power will put a bit of thought into their sleazy campaigns.
Something about her face really makes it look like it’s photoshopped on. As if the angle of her face is different to the angle of her head.
Not even lying, i was indeed staring at the crisps
Ah here it’s all hunky dory
Hunky dorys… We’ve made a few…. chaaanges
What a pretty lady.
So if I had those crisps, and she’s next to the crisps…. I better buy those crisps
Why do Irish ads all look like they were made by The Apprentice candidates, early in the show?
It doesn’t even make sense. What have crisps got to do with cleavage. It’s not like other words like melons,jugs etc. It means literally nothing
Every instagram and tiktok post now.
Ha… My mate sent them a letter saying how much he loved seeing the bill boards on his way to work every morning and he thought it very funny.
​
They sent him back big A3 copies of all the posters and a box of crisps.
pure sound.
I don’t remember any backlash. But I do remember personally thinking how disappointing it is that marketers think so low of me as a man that I will just buy shit because you show me a picture of tits.
I was already buying hunky dorys anyway. Yis bastards.
Fine set of tits on her
A single company practically has a monopoly of all the crisps sold in Ireland. They were delighted with the attention. It was free advertising for people who weren’t offended. While people who were offended went and bought different brands of crisps that they also owned.
Tayto is also not Irish at this point. Its all owned by Intersnack, which is a German company
Do YOU come with the crisps?
This Club Orange ad had the liveline hopping too 🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊
Yea I remember being disappointed when I went to watch women’s rugby
Yorkie not for girls. Snickers you’re not you when you’re hungry. The pot noodle prostitute commercial. Mr T calling a man implied to be gay “a disgrace to the male race”. the Heineken ad with Jack Charlton, Mick McCarthy and John Giles where the thrust of the joke is ” lol women playing soccer” . All kind of gross.
Crown jewel has to be Michael O’Leary repainting the airbusses to make the breast of the angel slightly bigger so he could “get more coverage in The Sun”
I remember one of my local post office/newsagents who was owned by less than savoury character had two of the girls who worked there dress up like the women in the ads and stand out on the street passing out bags of crisps. It was bizarre to say the least.

I remember that but thought it was Club Orange.
