New Pumar ad campaign is wicked sucky

Have you see the new Boston-themed wall-to-wall campaign for Puma at Park Street? It spells out words like "Habah" and "dance floah."

Kate Hutchinson is weihded out:

Dear Puma: boston accent advertising has been done to death. Try something new, like selling your product

Aaron Weber also gets his Boston up, says he finds the ads condescending at best:

... It marks the advertiser as an outsider desperate to fit in, as a tourist, as an out-of-towner. You might as well walk the Freedom Trail in khaki shorts, sandals with socks, a tricorner hat and a t-shirt with a lobster on it. That's definitely not the image Puma wants, but it's what they're getting. ...
