Burger King: Whopper Freakout Viral Movies
Again a great concept by the Miami creative hotshop Crispin Porter + Bogusky. In just a few years, the CP+ B team have really revitalized the Burger King brand in a rebellious way. An eye-opener for many agencies and brand managers.
Burger King is known as Home of the Whopper. In this concept a Burger King ‘Whopper Free Zone’ was created. Customers are being told: we are very sorry, Burger King discontinued the Whopper. And you must really, really see the reactions of real customers, taped with hidden cameras!
Customers go crazy with reactions like: “this must be a joke, get serious” and “the Whopper not longer on the menu, I’m freaking out here”. Some customers get really very angry and some tell great stories about Burger King.
So if you have strong products, why not letting customers tell others how much they like these products?! Whopper, anything else is a freaking dissappointment. Check the videos at Whopper Freakout. A must see!

This is again a very original and creative idea from probably the best agency in the world.
