As I stumbled on to the T very earkt this morning I looked up and almost laughed out loud. The whole side of the car was covered in Landshark ads. What a hoot. Last week I saw an SUV of some type covered with ads as well but did not think fast enough to give the driver the "fin".

Funny, but I often wonder what non-Buffett fans think that "Landshark" means when they see ads for this beer.......... :o :roll: :wink:

Had a Landshark hat on the other day and a non-Parrothead guy I know asked if I was going fishing. This was in the Midwest, so not like I would be setting out for a day of offshore shark fishing.

The person in the photo was totally oblivious to the fact that I was taking a picture. I don't think she was any more awake than I was. [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif]

Wasn't the use of "Landshark" in "Fins" originally inspired by the SNL skits (which, were in turn, inspired by the popularity of Jaws)? That's what I've always believed anyway. Especially considering the number of SNL asides he made during the You Had To Be There recordings.

Yeah, most people (non-Parrotheads) would wonder why a beer is named for a SNL skit character! :wink: :pirate:
