I sent the link to a buddy of mine in AB, just thought I would rib him a little. The following is the response I got.
I know! That commercial is running constantly. I am expecting a follow-up shortly. Are they airing that commercial out your way? I was over at a friends place when we first saw that commercial. Fortunately her laptop was nearby so we logged onto the site and voted that the Kokanee Ranger NOT be killed off. He makes a good point on why he shouldn't be killed off, though. A) First and foremost somebody has to protect the precious stock of glacier-fresh Kokanee and secondly, his fans (like me) won't stand for it. Of course they leave us hanging at the end of the commercial when he hears a knock at the door and when he opens all you see is the Kokanee Ranger saying "Oh dear....." They don't show who was knocking on the door.
IF they kill him off, I'll bet it's the Kokanee sasquatch that does it. It would make sense given their hostile relationship, what with the Sasquatch constantly stealing the Kokanee. The further question needs to be begged, what will happen to the Kokanee Ranger's sidekick if the Ranger is killed off and most importantly, what will happen to the bikini clad Kokanee babes?????? LEAVE THE KOKANEE BABES ALONE!!!! I'll boycott Kokanee if the Kokanee babes are removed (OK, who am I kidding, no boycott but still.....) Snowboarding babes chasing a sasquatch is hot. The one where the Kokanee babes were in training to catch the sasquatch was, um, memorable. Let's just leave it at that.
To recap, yes, I have given this a lot of thought.
