‘Bucket. Why not?’ asks KFC in cheeky new outdoor ad
Fast-food restaurant KFC has expanded on its campaign celebrating its 50th Birthday with a series of out-of-home ads seemingly riffing off the phrase “Fuck it”.
Created by its long-standing creative agency Ogilvy, the outdoor ads appear on billboards and on buses saying “Bucket. Why Not?” and “We’ve been saying bucket since 1968”.

Suspect this will cause some minor grief given the family-friendly positioning KFC has held until now.
If Obama can use it in his last Correspondents dinner speech, then KFC has definitely earned the right. Love the double entendre!
Hate this ad! As so many advertisers are going down this path of using young children to hint strongly at inappropriate language it doesn’t surprise me but why? Surely there is a better way
