 GUEST JUDGE /BEST AD OF THE WEEK   WORLDWIDE    September 01, 2010 02:01 (Edited: February 17, 2023 05:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/upload/Richard_Gorodecky-NEW-web.jpgRichard Gorodecky is the executive creative director of Amsterdam Worldwide.

Dirty Fireman gets an insanity award this week. There isn't enough madness in advertising these days. We've all become a bit too grown up as of late. I can only hope this piece of work heralds a new dawn of things not really making any sense. I miss the good old days. I miss my lobster.
