You do know Fred and Barney also used to hawk Winston Cigarettes? Winston, in fact, sponsored “The Flintstones” during its first two seasons before they switched to the more family-friendly Welch’s Grape Juice.
(And I look down and see MadTheSwine mentioned Winston Cigarettes before I did.)
My favorite part of the video is that drinking beer makes a magic disembodied hand pat you on the head while a soothing woman’s voice tells you she’ll make it all better.
Beer! Making sucky lives bearable since time immemorial.
Next time you go to a bar, make sure you bang your fist on the bar and demand service, and when the bartender asks you what kind of beer you want, throw your arms in the air and shout “any kind, you lunkhead, any kind!”
Ten beers later that hand is pointing at some bikers and saying “Kick those pussies asses! You can take them! Do it!”
