In Videos: The Pizza Man in the Visa 'Mambo Italiano' Commercial
In a Q&A in the New York Times today, the paper's advertising columnist answers reader questions. One question: Who is that wonderful pizza man in the Visa commercial? I love the commercial every time I see it.I have to admit that I’m not sure I would want to eat a pizza that has run over his back and down his arm. But oh, I sure like to watch that sexy guy. The short answer: Juan Hermosillo, who works for Pizza Pizza in Ontario. Now you know where he works; maybe you can watch him in person....CiCi's Pizza Wants You to See a Penny, Pick It Up
In a move somewhat reminiscent of Burger King's lost wallet marketing stunt, CiCi's Pizza is distributing one million pennies on sidewalks around its 650 locations. The pennies are stickered with various coupons—free meals, free drinks, buy-one-get-one free. The pizza-buffet chain, with locations in 30 states, started the promotion yesterday....In Videos: Rain's South Korean Pizza Hut Commercial
Most Americans not familiar with South Korean pop culture probably know Rain—if at all—from The Colbert Report, where host Stephen Colbert has had a longstanding fake feud with the ultra-popular pop singer, dancer, model, and actor. (Rain topped Colbert in a 2007 Time magazine online reader poll of "100 Most Influential People.") Well, here's one more thing Rain has on Colbert—a Pizza Hut commercial. [The video, after the jump.]...Online Pizza Advertising Increases
A fairly dry piece on online pizza advertising appears on QSRmagazine.com. Basically says that now that the big three have online ordering, you'll be seeing more of their ads online via Google Ads....Free Pizza from TD Bank
From the New York Times: Since Nov. 1, TD Bank, part of the TD Bank Financial Group, has been buying pizzas from pizzerias near its branches and giving them away to anyone who orders a pie to be delivered from those restaurants on, say, a Friday night.The estimated 20,000 pizzas come in boxes emblazoned with the logo of TD Bank, formed by the combination of TD Banknorth and Commerce Bank.

The Economist wants college students to learn more about global affairs while chowing down on pizza. The publication's new branded boxes use pie charts to express statistics on global wheat consumption, arable crop land, and cheese imports, as part of their "get a world view campaign." Twenty pizzerias nearby Philadelphia-area college campuses will distribute the boxes. Kind of reminds me of the back of cereal boxes, except this knowledge seem heavier (less word searches)....In Videos: Mac vs. PC in Apple Computer Pizza Box Ad
"Come eat me. I'm a delicious pizza." I'm not the first to point out that the Apple vs. PC ads are annoying. John Hodgman as the personification of "PC" is much more likable than Justin Long as "Mac." But even though these ads unintentionally make me a PC fan, they're usually pretty fun. In the latest Apple commercial, PC hides in a pizza box, as it's the only way he figures college students will choose him. Watch the video, after the jump....Papa John's Crop Circle
It's in a field outside Denver International Airport, in anticipation of folks flying in for the Democratic National Convention there. Big photo here: http://www.businesswire.com/portal/site/home/permalink/?ndmViewId=multimedia_detail&newsLang=en&eid=5749019...Dear Slice: Domino's Gotham City Pizza
