Dale Peterson Mocked in Fake Ad

It was bound the happen sooner or later. The inevitable parody video has been cut: Big horse (named Franklin), big gun and big accent included.

The spoof website Funny or Die has produced a fake campaign ad after Dale Peterson’s Internet sensation.

In his bid to head up Alabama’s Agriculture Commission, Peterson’s take no prisoners-style (complete with a big horse and big gun) has made him a cyberspace star. That ad has been viewed 800,000 times since Sunday.

Now Funny or Die has spoofed his ad, making fun of Peterson’s walk, talk and gun as well.

Here’s an idea.

Original ad: “I’ve been a farmer, a businessman, a cop, a marine during Vietnam, so listen up.”

Spoof ad: “I’ve been a farmer, a cop, a volunteer, I sat people in a movie theater one summer…so listen up.”
