“All I do is M, M, M, no matter what…”
Nice… was struggling with this one… Melt in your War Damn Mouth just sounded… somethin’
Literally LOL-ed @ Auburn Elvis.
BUT, why is his head RED???
I think it’s orange. It seems to match the stripes on the jersey. Also, there are two tones of reddish color M&Ms on the right and the more orange-er ones seem to be the same color as the stripes/ head.
And yes, you just blew the mystique by making someone explain things.
I believe that’s one of the standard M&M mascots: the red, plain M&M, the sarcastic foil to the simple-minded yellow peanut M&M.
OK, I admit it. I was wrong. After MUCH searching I found the official Mar’s press releases and POS display posters and yes, that is the red M&M. I guess they didn’t wanna use the orange one, cause he’s the pretzel M&M, not the plain. Shucks.
My son’s pledge brother had a Mars, Inc connection…..not sure if his dad is still an exec with them as this was back 10-12 years ago. Maybe he left an indelible Auburn impression while there.
Still, though, that red M&M is wearing an Auburn jersey!
