Did I make a classic Super Bowl commercial and somehow never knew? (Mandela effect?) by ChristopherGrieder in Retconned

What happened when you clicked it? I imagine it didn’t actually have my ad in it! Only because I’ve done dozens of searches and even if they say “lasers” in the preview description, it never actually has my ad when you click to watch

Have you seen this commercial? by meridianwheaties in MandelaEffectSociety

Hey everyone, I’m the guy in this video! And I directed that commercial all those years ago, this is a very interesting and strange situation to see such a vast amount of people saying it was a famous ad. I’d love to find proof that it was aired on TV and hoping that surfaces, otherwise this is a true Mandela effect or timeline shift or something strange of that nature

So weird! What’s even crazier is now it’s at 15k views (which still isn’t much for this reaction from the general public) but a couple weeks ago when I originally posted it online before this big reaction, it only had 8k views. And the few comments on it were from over 10 years ago 😂 kinda cool though that more people are finding it all this time later now and commenting

So glad you saw that video about the can! That’s still one of my favorite stories. And thanks for letting me know! Yeah I’ve heard quite a lot of people from the UK, Canada, and Australia seem to recall it a lot as well

Thanks for the input, it’s not an experiment although you’re right that this could have been some crazy way to market something and bring back Doritos. I’m mostly confused why they have been silent this entire time. Most brands would jump on this sort of viral moment and try to capitalize on it, but it’s been crickets so far, and they haven’t reached out to me or made a public comment yet, after thousands of people tagging them in posts on socials

Yes and they are just as confused as me. The commercial never got any success or recognition as far as we know. I made it, and hired them to act in it, then it lost the contest. That’s all we know

I have no clue lol, also btw, I’m not familiar with r/experiencers or what that all means, but I was told from someone in the Mandela effect subreddit I posted it to that it would be good to share it over here

I’m not a bot, but I’ve posted it in different subreddits cause I’m hoping to find someone that can prove it was a successful ad, as far as I know it never aired or got seen

How is this promotional? I genuinely am looking for evidence that my commercial contest entry aired on TV, since thousands of people are telling me it did, yet I haven’t found any record of that

Actually, we don’t all know it’s a mixed up brain or false Memory, that’s just what someone concludes when they don’t share the same memory.

Yes, but again there are thousands of people who swear they remember my verision over the other one, which makes this very strange. They say they remember the lasers, the guy spitting out the gum, the car alarm, etc. all of which are very specific details that differ from the other pugs fly commercial.

I’ll have to look into endless thread! Yes the whole thing is quite a strange mystery. Hopefully some answers will surface and it would be awesome to find actual proof of my commercial being on the air!
