‘Mr T’ Gives Snickers Some Nuts!

Yes he’s back! For the first time since the A-Team left our screens in 1987, legendary aviophobic ‘Mr T’ is returning to UK screens in a brand new TV advertising campaign for SNICKERS.

He then charges onto a football field, crushing cars and concrete posts before ridiculing an injured football player and urging him to “Get Some Nuts”.

Other classic lines in the advertisements include:

“Quit yo jibba jabba”

and…

“If I ever catch you actin’ like a crazy fool again,
you’re going to meet my friend pain”

A collection of downloadable Mr T sound bites will be available soon.The multi-million pound advertising campaign is currently running in the UK and targets 16-44 year old men.

SNICKERS spokesperson Kay Nicholls says: “We’re honoured to be bringing a star as big as Mr T back to UK screens. Mr T’s manly attitude is spot on for SNICKERS, which is a no nonsense chocolate bar for today’s man.”

hey Steve!

I almost deleted your comment in the midst of a s ea of spam. (Akismet is working, still quite a few creep in!)

Yeah he looks kinda aged, but it’s been 24 years since we saw in Rocky III … and I wonder if anyone knows his real name?

I did some research — it’s Clubber Lang :)

Hi Coverist guess what, the YouTube URL you sent is for the same ad that the commercial representatives for Snickers (Jackie Cooper Public Relations) sent me!

But I didn’t include the MPEG video clip in the post since the file size was humngous – something like 7.5MB!

But this YouTube video seems to download pretty fast, and I think I should go ahead and embed it in the post!

Thanks man! Guys like you make this blog run :)
