BANNED COMMERCIALS - Levi Garrett chewing tobacco commercial (1986)

[Meex1989]

I have a friend named Levi Garrett, and Ironically, not only does he not chew, dip, or smoke, he wants to become a doctor.

[LUXXXable]

i love it <3

[12TabulaRasa12]

[lauralei011]

LMAO I love that shit

[johndeereman567]

[youpornguy112]

red man is the best

[lj1941]

I remember listening to this commercial on MRN at Pocono while watching Jeff Bodine dominate the 86 Summer 500 only to have team-mate Tim Richmond win. Great racing and nobody knew that Tim was dying of AIDS!

[Mysterwright]

@lj1941 Great memory. :) What a way to go, right? :D He had balls of steel to be so sick and still compete. Glad he won. \m/

[yzrider102]

people make a big deal about chewing tabacco like "oh your gonna get gum cancer" but if u research theres very, very few people that accually had that problem and u die from alchoal or smoking then dippin so its wayy better thumbs up if u agree

[krystalloversteve]

After viewing this, I'm now 20% whiter than I was before.

[scarbadk]

Dem city folk be sayin dippin be bad for ma mouth health, next thing they be sayin sleepin with ma sis be immoral.

[metallicaholic43088]

@scarbadk LOL

[ironeli101]

I don't like tobacco, I'm more of a weed person

[LazyKProductions420]

please promote tobacco use as much as possible theres to many people on this planet the way it is

[Techh76]

@StokersGirl01 I'm dead serious . I cracked some dude's ribs on a tournament by accident using my heel.

[Techh76]

@StokersGirl01 I'd love to break ur jaw with my heel.

[inkey2]

I am a real statistics nut......about 250,000 americans die per year from Doctors malpractice..........so which is more dangerous.....doctors or tobacco

[LazyKProductions420]

@inkey2 well 400,000 die annually from tobacco use.

[inkey2]

@LazyKProductions420 yes, but doctors are supposed to be "good for you"...... something that is supposed to help you is more than 50% as dangerous as something that is guaranteed to kill you. Think about it

[24roto]

Fuck all of the pol that comment about mouth cancer if u feel that way about it then don't fucking do it and mind ur own fucking business

[Techh76]

remember! whatever u do, just don't chew! ....or ur probably gonna die of mouth cancer.

[idc39]

@Techh76 how do u die of motuh cancer

[Techh76]

@idc39 irw , dude , any kind of cancer can be fatal if not treated in time .

[fixed0gear0luv]

[user4014]

@teabaggerable your profile says you're 15 yrs old and that you enjoy life. but you actually sound like a 35 year old woman who's been fucked so many times she can't stand the sight of her own face.

[teabaggerable]

@user4014 u sound like a person who is afraid to fuck with me u piece of shit and eats out his mom like 24/7 so can u wake me up in the morning when im done fucking ur mom i got to go to school u little shit

[AssxDestroyer]

@teabaggerable hey faggot, when ur chugging cock, do you spit or swallow?

[fitzpantsenson]

@teabaggerable actually, my favorite chew is straight cope. but sometimes I really like flavored chews, like Hawken. too bad you have to be such a little piece of shit about it.

[teabaggerable]

@fitzpantsenson u dont chew shit dude ur a pussy dipper/chewer u shit head

[fitzpantsenson]

you know what's a delicious chew is Hawken.

[awsomeking12]

Hell ya my chew is Levi Garret but my snuff is COPENHAGEN ORIGINAL LONG CUT

[cntryboyloves12gauge]

Ive had levi garret before and it tasted just like redman. I prefer Copenhagen longcut though. Classic.

[justgiver91]

hell yeah i always dip when i drive

[elc1960]

Levi Garrett used to be the favored chewing tobacco for MLB players back in the '70s and '80s. I love how they're playing to their core audience by using a singer doing a Waylon Jennings imitation while showing a NASCAR-type race. I agree with BeyondInfinium's remark. I know not only "rednecks" chew tobacco, but the company is clearly playing to a stereotype here - the lowest common denominator (a time-tested theme in television and advertising).

[BeyondInfinium]

The only way this commercial could be more "rednecky" is if it had beer and guns.

[redneck9847]

now a day's alcohol is even getting baned from nascar look what they did to the busch series it's now the nationwide series....i'm pretty sure the last two chewing tobbacco cars in Nascar just went bye bye this year. Gregg Biffles Red Man car in the nationwide series, and, Ron Hornaday's Longhorn truck in the Camping World series. we are lucky to have the Crown Royale car of Matt Kenseth and the budwieser car! it's all about Japan in Nascar nowadays :(

[rockytopfarm]

@redneck9847 I told my wife you watch, they will not make red man and longhorn sponsors stay on. You and I were correct on this call.

[redneck9847]

@rockytopfarm yeah it's absoulutly ridiculous, we are rapidly running out of sponsors, pretty soon huggies and gerber baby food will be the main sponsors of nascar!

[dirtdemon6]

red man

[antiall90]

@dirtdemon6 I love Redman plugs and the golden chew.

[skoalrocks57]

hes in first for 2 reasons its levi garrett and its a chevy

[shippo7000]

red man is still better

[McCall72]

The 80's Monte Carlo made for a sweet looking racer.

[airsoftpunisher97]

soooo....why was this banned???

[antiall90]

@airsoftpunisher97 Parents don't how to teach and control their kids, so kids saw commercials and tried it. So instead of educating them, we just ban commercials i guess lol. I guess we're gonna ban Victoria Secret commercials next cuz it might just promote masturbation! hahahaha

[pacmannick]

Geoff Bodine

[actionfan2]

must...chew...

[kungfujellybean]

This was banned?!?! Fuck that, I want this on my ipod.

[lilmissnisi]

What I don't understand is why people tobacco adverts and not the tobacco itself. It's not the advert that's killing their health it's the tobacco itself. Well, tbh, if they are selling tobacco in shops, doesn't that mean advertising too?

[HolyShenigansFilms]

@lilmissnisi america was born using money from tobacco, if you hate tobacco, you hate america

[33skoalbandit]

@HolyShenigansFilms He isn't even from the US you jackass.

[gkyy3c]

@HolyShenigansFilms i do.

[SCryder07]

fuckin democrats did this shit.thats why there aint no busch series or winston cup. fuck that. yet we can have these stupid niggers talkin about hoes and wastin your money on drugs and shootin people? really? what the fuck

[jake44514]

Is that Billy Ray Cyrus before anyone knew him?

[Southernpride005]

thats not hank jr lol. maybe waylon...idk for sure tho

[ratedxrated]

The sound bugs me XD

[Smalls800]

im a levi fan i love it and its cheap

[jimdigly]

haha fuckin levi garrett!

[TheDeerhunter1292]

yea def. not hank jr

[keonakana1]

Haha, lol.. Hillbilly commercial xD

[WastedDaze78]

I think that was Waylon Jennings.... same guy that sung the Duke of Hazzard song

[KurtBuschRules2]

It kinda sounds like Waylon but it could be Hank Williams Jr.

[WastedDaze78]

@KurtBuschRules2 ....I thought you said Hank Sr at first and I was gonna call you an idiot lol... but you may be right, I only listened once before I commented... I think you may be right after hearing it again.. sounds more like Hank Jr after listening to it again... definitely one of the two though

[KurtBuschRules2]

@WastedDaze78 Im goin with Hank Jr.

[WastedDaze78]

@KurtBuschRules2 ... Ok fine! I was wrong!!! Happy now?? ... but in all seriousness he did do the Monday night football song so its more likely he would have done a commercial before Waylon. .. plus the voice does sound more like him... bad call on my part brother... nice call on yours

[bct20thornton]

best stuff they make! no doubt about it!! i love it!

[Liam2173]

I love Levi Garrett, although I haven't had a chew in over a year (job/insurance reasons). Personally, I think the government would want to do everything they can to promote the tobacco industry since so many of their federal programs have gotten dependant on tobacco tax revenue. I say screw the government and their Nazi tobacco taxes lets all grow our own tobacco and be self sufficient the way Thomas Jefferson envisioned!

[antiall90]

@Liam2173 I would, but i think the ATF would have a problem with that!

[pnutck]

Just got my order of skoal from the states.. Carving up peach skoal.. Sensational kills chew

[Jimchapper]

its good but not one bit of a buzz.. go for the good ole grizz

[soukupb]

so you can have alcohol commercials and thats alright considering people are dyeing everyday of drinking and driving but there banning dip and chew commercials? somebody explain that to me please!!!

[walsh465]

i agree with u. prob cause alcohol brings in way more money then chew

[redneckpride4ever]

@soukupb Exactly. I smoke outside of my house for the same reason I don't drink and drive. I don't want my kids breathing smoke, and they shouldn't be riding in my car if I'm drinking (not that I drink and drive).

If given the choice, I'd rather you smoke around my kids than take them for a drunken joyride.

[tatomuck18]

in case you didnt know, chewing tobacco causes MOUTH CANCER!

You like mouth cancer?

[soukupb]

@tatomuck18 chewing tobacco dont cause mouth cancer it only speeds it up.alchohol causes way more problems than dip or chew.

[mastablasta24]

@tatomuck18 my grandma dipped from 6 to 90 never had cancer

[CrypticRealms09]

@tatomuck18 lmfao, thats scary man

[C0LL1N]

@soukupb because by watching this commericial today, it made me go out and buy chewing tobacco and now im addicted!

[SexyKush420]

@soukupb think about it the gov't makes more money being anti tobacco than they would being pro tobacco

[SidsMusicUk]

@soukupb they make more money through alcohol

[mattchew300]

@SidsMusicUk Not true at all... Where the hell did you get that idea?

[pervertedpenguin69]

@soukupb explain why cannabis is illegal when alcohol kills over 65,000 americans every years, tobacco kills almost half a million and not a single person has died from ganja ever in the history ogf human life

[soukupb]

@pervertedpenguin69 I dont get that either i would rather have both alcohol and tobacco be illegal than cannabis.

[pervertedpenguin69]

@soukupb hell yea bro 

[SGVeseHopeless]

@pervertedpenguin69

Its illegal because it will have no value ,anyone can grow pot lol even the kid next door all you need is a seed and a cup and time will do the rest ,now not everyone can make fine malt liquor ,MICKEYS!

[pervertedpenguin69]

@SGVeseHopeless Thats right, its illegal because of greed. Why would pharmaceutical companies want cannabis legal when its easy to grow your own medicine for a mountain of ailments including curing cancer. You speak the truth good sir.

[georgiaredman1]

i like to chew about ten peice of hubba bubba at once, take it out then wrap it around a big ol chaw of redman original its amazing

[Sparkz1607]

At least Big League Chew isn't hazardous to your health.

God it tastes good. :D

*Blows bubble*

[clickheretocmenaked]

big league chew is so good hey. but its really hard to get in australia :(

[gearheadmatt]

Cool commercial like snuff better though but levi garret is the best chew

[linebacker20]

if you take some big league chew gum with that and its the fucking shit lol

[Jcale101]

hell yeah levi is like candy

[mourningmoose]

levi garrett beats redman all the way!

[clickheretocmenaked]

[33skoalbandit]

Read the god damn description.

[clickheretocmenaked]

[MIdwestSpiter5]

[BigBadDipper]

[CvilleTigers11]

[rockytopfarm]

Nothing like a good chew on a sunday afternoon at a Nascar track! can't beat it!

[poopmankind]

oh my god!

i love levi garrett so damn much.

[calfropingfordman]

fuck liberals

[speedinginmyporsche]

Fuck the house nigger

[sanjouindacapo]

I hope someday that we can get some REAL change in our government that will end this tobacco 'Hayes Code'. These laws are violating the companies' rights to freedom of speech and artistic expression.

[cuatreros4X4]

i love levi

[speedinginmyporsche]

Fuck yea

Gimmie my chew and my Nascar

and Fuck the world

[staindamarth]

yea same GRizzly wintergreens great

[SPACECADET2U]

Today we can have queers and dykes getting married in real life, kissing, and screwing in movies and primetime tv series, but we can't have a 30 second commercial about race cars and chewing tobacco? We're in serious trouble folks....

[gearheadmatt]

i agree its ok to show a bunch of queers and lesbos do shit but not advertise chewing tobacco whats worse but ya were in trouble

[ParadigmPenguin]

Well said.

[mcnutters17]

Agreed

[iam2danditiscool]

yeah brother, whens the clan meetin' again? you better bring tha tabacci.

[mcnutters17]

2:00bring ur robe

[crazyz28s]

what liberal media has done to America...

[leloodallasmultipass]

you know, you can talk all day about them queers and dykes, but really... its much hotter when you just download the stuff.

[afi21321]

thats my favorite comercial ever!

[shiekastate]

chewin and dippin arent as bad for u as drinkn but still u got to watch how much u do, probably the safest one is chew but thats just me. dipp is good but it makes me crash in like 5 min so i chew instead

[Jake199415]

why was that banned?

[DarkNowInDachau]

All tobacco commercials were banned by the FCC. Cigarette commercials in 1971, and smokeless tobacco commercials in 1986. They're still allowed in magazines (except for Time, People, Sports Illustrated, and Newsweek), and billboard ads were banned in 1999. All tobacco advertisements on billboards in 1999 were replaced with anti-tobacco ads (paid for by tax money I assume).

[33skoalbandit]

I believe a lot of anti-tobacco ads we see are part of the settlements tobacco companies agreed to in court, so they wouldn't be taxpayer funded.

[grizzlyunderage]

why they gotta ban tobacco comercials when alchohol (a substance that causes car wrecks, alchohol poisoning, domestic disturbances etc) commercials are fine and dandy

[eatgrass123]

i agree 100%. tobacco commercials should be fine. think about it. you cannot die in one night of smoking cigarettes, but you can from drinking. people have never been raped due to cigarette smoking. this is why i also think smoking should be allowed in all bars. i think it should be a business choice, not a government choice; if the bar wants to allow smoking, non-smokers dont have to go, but lots of people enjoy a nice cig after a stressful day.

[cowboycole92]

its probly this way because tobacco is easyer to get then alcohol, thats the way it was for me...i dunno though

[eatgrass123]

That is a good point. It is very easy to get, but tobacco is also much less damaging in the short-term and also in the long-term. It is easy to get though, good point.

[cowboycole92]

exactly, chewing tobacco might fuck up your gums or teeth a lil bit but alcohol destorys brains cells and you can get liver cancer and alcers.....

[SteelC1tyK1ng]

cand give me a better buzz than leaf

[FVAproductions]

levi is great nothin beats it i had some redman gold blend and it just dont compare

[MonteLSV6]

Yeah mouth cancer FTW

[Liam2173]

it's more like that's just another company who is the cross hairs of radical socialists in our government and who is going to be squeezed by big government taxes, commin through! ( But hey Obama says that this largest federal tabacoo tax increase is "for the children" so I guess it is ok then! :o))

[ingvarb1]

That's Levi Garrett!

[blackwingangel04]

Back when I first tried chewing, Garret was the only brand I really cared for.

[masonsphilips]

levi is the best....red man just don't stack up

[UnInfinity]

Idk there both good i prefer redman tho

[nishbrown]

WOW! I actually remember this commercial!!

Lol!

[gearheadmatt]

I dont think ive ever seen a nigger chew of course there are almost no niggers were i live but still

[bigkeys72]

We niggas don't want our tongues to get cut out and teeth to fall out like you honkies chewing snuff lol

[bobafettfan32]

why i gotta be about niggas and honkies. why u got 2 go there i'm white and i dont use any tobacco products. i sure am not a honky either.

[frumplen]

not true man.plenty of yall in alabama chew

[Southernpride005]

cause u dont see niggers chewin alot!!!

[gearheadmatt]

Levi Garrett is good chew

[RIPturrettsguy]

ur damn rite it is iv almost started chewin it the way grizzly an cope an husky an timberwolf has went up cuz of the taxes its been raise almost a doller

[Serji90]

this stuff kills red man chew in my book! ha it's amazing!

[Thisisforhalo123]

why do tobacco companys always target red necks and those type of people

[GCB1982]

why did they ban this? it's a cool commercial. I started off chewing redman...now I'm a Levi man, it tates great, lasts a while, and doesn't give you a buzz from hell.

[habyss]

Do you have a Workhorse chewing tobacco commercial they can upload?

[PatEffnMorita]

wtf, its messed up that tobacco companies cant advertise. Hostess and McD's and shit can advertise and their shit is (almost, kind of, eventually) just as bad. someone start a petition!!!

[PatEffnMorita]

genuinely bad ass lookin car with a pos 305, transplant needed

[Spastard111]

Why did they ban tobacco related commercials? People are getting too old nowadays.

[Goodspittin]

I had a big chaw of this in when I watched this lol! Levi Rocks!

[banger110]

i love it

[Mississippi1313]

why would that get banned?..

[nihatrou]

LOL!  "the friend I'm proud to chew!"

[PaulZuppardo]

It's actually "the brand I'm proud to chew".

[loganbroussard1]

who's singin?

[DowntownCanon]

I've been looking for the Workhorse chew commercials. Anyone have it to upload?

[kaneda956]

its all about chattanooga chew...

[MrCrabs08]

[McLovin4646]

[CopeenhagenJunkie]
