Remember, folks, he’s the most interesting man in the world, not the toughest, smartest, coolest, etc. I think the ads get away from that sometimes. My favorite: “You see I fell in love with Dos Equis after my short stay in jail in Guadalajara. In fact I returned every Thursday after I was sprung to play canasta with some of the guards. I express reservations.”
Read one of the early ones here. I say we start a campaign to get him back to his roots.
In other news, apparently my best friend knows someone in LA who docks his boat next to that actor’s boat. So I’m only three degrees away from the most interesting man in the world. How cool am I?
I’m glad they dropped the ads where he gave advice. He’s not supposed to have an opinion about anything. People are supposed to imagine what his opinions are, and believe that his opinions actually satisfy both sides of an issue.
That said, he once performed an appendectomy during an earthquake with a ball-point pen and a flashlight. On himself.
My favorite of that series still holds, then: the subject was “Manscaping”, and after a brief pause, the Most Interesting Man said, “…I have no idea what this is.”

He once held the rapt attention of a theater full of teenage girls with ADD for four hours by sitting silently on the stage on a chair looking like he was about to speak.
He once held a conversation with a friend in a theater during a performance of Hamlet starring Laurence Olivier. Olivier apologized to him for interrupting him with his soliloquy.
