But anyway, I loved those ads, they made me laugh and reminded me of my friends and I back in high school.
That CEO sure has guts. You know those rappers are trigger-happy.

Yeah tons of guts thats why he has suddenly back peddled his statements after realizing they would not go unnoticed by a community who bought him tons of business and "free" advertisement for years. To hell with Cristal, Dom P and Korbel even taste better. Frederic Rouzaud wasn't alone in his sentiment just one of the few foolish/vocal enough to state it publicly.

As for the ads most were hilarious and I as a consumer and car fan appreciate the humor (tasteless or otherwise) in their campaigns. Very funny stuff.
