McLean Stevenson is the customer in the Schlitz Beer commercial from 1969. The guy carrying the beers on a tray is game show host Geoff Edwards.

I agree. They can't keep it on the shelves in Milwaukee, Minneapolis and Chicago.

@ kONflictOD - I thought that was OJ for a second too!

I really like Schlitz. You need to try the "Original 1960's formula" they sell in longnecks now. It's good stuff for cheap beer.

When you'e out of schlitz... You didn't buy enough.

Sadly, after Col. Blake drank that Schlitz, he departed on a cargo plane from Seol to Tokyo; unfortunately a Mig-15 intercepted them over the sea of Japan; the place was hit; it spun in; ....there were no survivors.

Is that really Geoff Edwards carrying the tray?

"Col Blake, along with this beer, you also have TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!!"

This is a great alternative ending to this ad;

Billboard says "Hours later...." then we see a drunk McLean trying to say, "When you're out of Schliz, you're out of beer". He played a superb drunk during those moments in MASH when Col Blake had a few too many.
