Pinky and the Braun

[InsomniacInkRoss]

The current headline on the Brewers sight is

 

Pinky and the Braun: Crew powers past Cards

 

I find that to be a rather obscure pop culture reference, and wonder how much of the general public would "get" it

 

How many people here do?

 

Please no one explain it right off the bat, I am curious to see

[jazzytrav]

Get it.

 

I'm actually curious as well, as I was a huge fan and quote often, but friends of mine don't know what I'm talking about.

[Point Beer Is Best]

I get it.

 

But I'm not sure if it would be a profitable phrase to put on a t-shirt, if that's what you're getting at. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

 

Unless, of course, you're... trying to rule the world!

[Cracked Bat Collector]

I get what it means.

[Blazer25]

I get it as well. Funny stuff.

[brewcrewman17]

yep, I got it. Nice reference by McCalvy (or whoever may have written the headline)

[ELCABALLO45]

I got it

[TooLiveBrew]

Unless, of course, you're... trying to rule the world!

 

What're we going to do tonight, Ryan?

 

I so get it. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[sbrylski]

I get it so much I wasn't aware it was obscure. NARF!

[Brian the Automator]

I get it as well

[don1481]

NARF!

 

Of course I get it!

[Invader3K]

uh-huh.

[stoops17]

get it as well

[TheBwaz]

I'm down on it, but where are we going to find trash bags and a rodeo clown at this hour?

[Fatter than Joey]

I think the reference is far from obscure for the 25-40 year old demographic.

 

It's pretty fresh and clever IMO.

[tristarscoop]

Love the reference.

[hawing]

I get it at age 42 and my S.O. would (were he reading this) at 51. Are you pondering what I think you're pondering, Ross? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[TSack27]

OK, I'll be the first to admit that I missed it (and I'm in that demo). Maybe I live too far North.

[Menotti80]

narf!

[brewcrew00]

I get it, and TSack, I doubt you're too far north, I loved it right away and I'm from up north as well.

[Team Canada]

Troz!

[burniebrewer]

I got the play on words, but have no clue about the actual show.

[mothershipconnection]

Never watched the show, but I still get the reference.

[bjkrautk]

...Their Mothers' Day campaign

is easy to explain.

 

(Yeah, I get it....even if it did take ~10 minutes to think up a reference someone else hasn't used already.)

[fondybrewfan]

I loved that show. Although the Animaniacs had one annoying theme song
