80s commercial - Bubble Yum

[mainmedic]

That wacky fruit wasn't really wacky

[RetroArcadia]

the spider eggs rumour only made me want bubble yum more

[danieljh]

A rip-off of The Cars music video "you might think"

[ASarcasmProduction]

Wacky Fruit flavor, I guess it's a better then Pullin-it Splash, or Yummy Cu....y gum.

[pedrocollares]

don't read books!!

don't play the piano!!

don't waste your time!! you gotta be cool and chew bubble gum while dancing shit music instead.

[TheMommy1969]

i dot no it looks old

[Diskoboy1974]

Wacky Fruit was one of my favorite flavors. That, and Pink Lemonade.

RALPH MACCHIO! :D

[wildmillie]

I loved bubble yum as a kid, only got it at Royal Show time.

[DarthVaderLightSaber]

Gotta love the old IBM XT she's sitting at... You really had to have some money if you could afford one of those back then. They were $2500 which is about $6000 in today's cash.

I remember this commercial. Back in the 80s only the smart people knew how to use computers and there was no internet. That's probably a strange concept for those born after this commercial was made.

Nice commercial!

Thanks for posting!

[MediaWatchDawg]

I wish they still made peppermint Bubble Yum.

[pardyhardly]

@MediaWatchDawg Oh yeah that was great! I think they called it "Checkermint". That was the longest lasting flavor of any bubble gum I've ever had.

[SteveCarras]

Oh my GOD! [Insert Six Mix-a-Lot "Baby Got Back" Valley Gal intor if you wish.] LOL I remember this: "You worked so hard, now have some fun, yum it up, with a new kinda bubble yum..":)

[Gabriella365]

is that guy on the computer screen who i thinkk it is? ralph macchi? :)

[WarshipAngelus]

So the Greek girl chew the gum then get's suck into the computer monitor and then all of sudden she is a hot sexy girl. LOL.. That's funny. I don't think they can make a silly commerical like that work today.

[jordan10la]

@WarshipAngelus I can't imagine it worked then.

[timewarped2the80s]

Hey that boy kid kinda looks like Rick Ocasek from the Cars!

[ClassicTVMan81]

How many teen girls actually chewed Bubble Yum when on American Bandstand back in, say, 1984-85???

[Mroldays]

Wow, I remember this!

If anybody is interested, my page is dedicated to great old things just like this. I have tons of videos in my favorites with only good old stuff like this, add me as a friend and spread the love of the 80s and 90s

[odinvonzero]

I liked the Bubble Yum ads - they were based on "You Might Think" by The Cars, and the actresses were cute. The girl in this one kinda looks like Michelle Meyrink from Revenge of the Nerds.

[BigBlueBeast]

This commercial made me want to buy this gum as a child. Then I bought it and found out that it did not taste good.

[TheKidsRAlright]

Really? It doesnt look like him to me lol.

But hey, I wasnt even around in the 80s :p

[engine44]

[TheKidsRAlright]

[AkinaWaters]

I know it is in the part where he lifts his glasses and winks, or whatever. No doubt about it.

[knoxvillechick4life]

[pimpdad79]
