1981 Hubba Bubba Commercial

[TheChuck624]

Can I stop masterbating now?

[healz74]

This ad got me hooked on Hubba Bubba grape, when all of my friends were going with Bubble Yum or Bubblicous, especially the "won't stick to your face" pledge.

[sageofsuccess]

Was that Jack Palance?

[g29er]

Man, that reminds me of Saturday morning cartoons back in the day.

[madamewoselle]

Steampunky.

Now,here's a tv commerical I haven't seen in 30 years.Flashback memories to being a young kid.

[MrPoundDown]

My first shoplifing experience was with Hubba Bubba (35 cent grape) from Safeway in Flagstaff Az. Ahh, the memoris.

[whirlwindshadow]

@MrPoundDown My first shoplifting bust was a Marathon bar from Piggly Wiggly, across from Westcreek Elementary in Fort Worth, Texas, in 1976. Used to shoplift from Safeway on Alta Mesa during same time period. Juvenile delinquents!

[terrydribble]

Here comes the sheriff! And he's a *gummmm!!!*

[quirpco]

To tell you how slow of a kid I was back then, it took me a while to figure out why the Gumfighter blew on his gum after he took it off his face. Didn't quite make the "smoking pistol" connection! lol

[lurch321]

@quirpco I apparently was slow back then too.................took me SEVERAL YEARS to make that connection!

[quirpco]

@lurch321 Maybe we could start a club - "Slow Children of Hubba Bubba". lol

[edthewise]

This guy could of pulled off real westerns he had the look,the demeanor and the voice for sure

[maxwestcomics]

@edthewise Actually he did. The Gumfighter is actor Don Collier who did a number of Westerns!

[ASarcasmProduction]

My Hubba Bubba can beat your Bubble Yum any day...

[Chivlingtonbicuspid1]

humming it to myself all day so had to see if it was out here.... and it is. Big thanks x

[bionicgforcecoffee]

This ad is what turned me into a Hubba Bubba kid when the rest of my friends were Bubble Yummers. The Gum Fighter was the man! Thanks for posting!

[bionicgforcecoffee]

Dub Taylor was also the nut from REZ Woodstain. Shoots the shotgun full of stain on his wall. This ad is what sold me as a Hubba Bubba kid when the rest of my friends were Bubble Yum. Thanks for posting!

[spellbinderart]

Damn. I remember this from when I was a kid. Youtube is the shit.

[brbgal]

@spellbinderart Me too!!! I even remember the theme song! I'm going through watching these old commercials and it makes me feel young again.

[MyNephewIsTough]

Wasn't this a scene of of the show Deadwood on HBO?

[mftepera]

This is gold. I haven't seen it in 30 years, but I think about it from time to time. I have no idea why.

[curvy71]

i remeber those hubba Bubba gum commerical.

[zovex]

0:07 ”WHAT?“ runners?

[carhart001]

The old guy with his signature bowler hat and laugh is Dub Taylor but whose the guy blowing the bubble? He looks real familiar.

[swankrecords]

Big bubbles no troubles. I guess a man with small bubbles has troubles.

[Oceanlovermomo]

Mmmm that used to be my favorite gum especially the spearmint one....I wish they brought that flavor back too.

[1977SOUTHERNBOY]

The old guy with the white hair is Dub Taylor.He was in a ton of "B" movies back in the 70s.He was even on Hee Haw. Good Harmonica player.

[steeltownbrown52]

@1977SOUTHERNBOY He played Russell's old xylophone-playing friend Slim Claxton, in one ep of the Cosby Show.

[mrnhlman2010]

@steeltownbrown52 Oh, yeah! I got that episode from my Cosby Show DVD set.
