Outpost.com commercial - Gerbil This 1999 Super Bowl commercial tries to shock you into remembering their name by firing gerbils out of a canon. They were trying to fire the little rodents through the "O" in their name, but kept missing. They would hit a wall, fire over the wall, and ended up missing many times before getting them to fire through causing a siren to go off. What was their name? Well, it was Outpost.com , but it doesn't matter now - they went out of business along time ago. Now their domain just redirects you to frys.com . Hello. We want you to remember our name: Outpost.com . That's why we've decided to fire gerbils out of this canon through the "O" in Outpost. Cute little guy. Fire. And again. So close. Fire.

"Just For Feet Super Bowl XXXIII ad - Kenyan Runner (1999)" This Super Bowl ad begins with two guys in the African plains with a Humvee. They are testing and measuring a footprint they found, and when they discover "it's a match" they take off and speed across the land to find what they are looking for. We see that they are following a Kenyan man who is running in his bare feet and training for a marathon. The man's feet get tired and he collapses. When he wakes up the guys from the Humvee have put shoes on his feet, but he doesn't seem to like them. Not only was the commercial unsuccessful (why didn't the runner like their product?), but it was also considered racist, and the company went under less than a year later. It's a match. No! We're Just for Feet. To serve and protect feet. JFF Mission 6:43am To serve and protect feet Kenya Just for Feet The world's largest althletic shoe store www.feet.com

Monster.com 1999 Super Bowl This 1999 Super Bowl ad for Monster.com shows a bunch of kids talking about what they want to be when they grow up, but it's done sarcastically. All the kids are talking about jobs that no one really wants. The Monster.com job search web site has a solution for that. When I grow up, I want to file all day. I want to claw my way up to middle management. Be replaced on a whim. I want to have a brown nose. I want to be a yes man. A yes woman. Yes, sir. Coming, sir. Anything for a raise, sir. When I grow up, when I grow up I want to be under-appreciated. Be paid less for doing the same job. I want to be forced into early retirement. What did you want to be?

They have to pick one and when they do, the one that got chosen sticks his tongue out a gives the other one a raspberry. Two years later, we see the dog riding in a firetruck with it's head out of the window. It comes up to the Budweiser cart being pulled by the famous Clydesdales. Sitting in the seat with the "drivers" is the Dalmatian that didn't get chosen by the firemen. This time it is the Budweiser dog that sticks his tongue out because he got a better job. Hey, man. She's here. Pick one. Which one. You like this one? This little guy. Two years later (14 dog years) Budweiser
