An American television commercial advertising California Cooler (bottled wine cooler) circa 1986. This is my favorite California Cooler advertisement of all time!
@speedflames5 - @wbewley22's dad was one of the two co-founders of California Coolers. Stewart & Mike made a ton of money. I wanted to invest a $10K college fund I had in 1981 and my parents said no. Mike asked my Dad to invest since he helped get them distribution with Coors Distributors, he said no. That $10K would have cashed out at $1M when BF bought them out.
in tennessee most all the coolers you buy are made with beer Its illegal for them to sell the ones made with wine except in a liquor store so most of our coolers taste like CRAP!
I think the song in this commercial is "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow" by the Rivingtons. Another similar song called "Surfer Bird" is a derivative work based on this song. The Beach Boys also covered this song on their live 1964 LP.

@eartant - of course! In high school, we would go into 7-11 and take off the label and stick a sunkist label on it.
