First, Darrell Hammond revived Colonel Sanders for KFC. Now, Norm Mcdonald has taken the reigns, claiming Hammond wasn't the real Colonel Sanders, but he is in fact, the real Colonel Sanders. It's not really even weird, despite trying, because but it's that meta form of advertising we've come to expect from W+K. So here's a freebie for Portland: Do a crossover ad. Darrell hammond and Norm McDonald show up in their Colonel Sanders guises in the Old Spice commercials to tag team wrestle Terry Crews and Isaiah Mustafa. I'm sure there's a new KFC scented-body wash as well. The kids will love it.
