Beer In Ads #313: Schlitz’ Best Round I’ve Had All Day!

February 17, 2011 By Jay Brooks

ad-billboard
Thursday’s ad is yet another one for Schlitz, but from the early 1950s. The winner of the golf club’s tournament looks pompously out at us while pouring a Schlitz into the trophy. “Best round I’ve had all day!” Exactly how many rounds of golf does this smug bastard have time for in a 24-hour period of time? Doesn’t he a least have a job so he can afford his club membership?

    I take it you don’t play golf.

      Actually, I played on the golf team in high school, but I rarely have time for it these days.

    But did he buy? He would have had to if he shot a hole-in-one!
