A GOOD OLD FASHIONED PUBLICITY STUNT
July 19th, 2012 by Clark Humphrey

This is as close as I got to Thursday’s appearance by Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis at the Local Color coffeehouse on Pike Place.

Nice that their handlers chose a cool independent beanery to plug their new movie The Campaign.

What’s hard to understand is the sheer enormity of the turnout. Besides Pine Street (as seen here), crowds were sardine-packed along Pike Place, Pike Street, and even First Avenue.

Even Ranger Rick, the venerable kiddie eco-icon, showed up, eager for a captive audience to spread his conservation message.

    Not up to speed on 21st century comedy Clark?

    Me neither.

    But I am around younger folks who rave about these guys.

    I bet between Will and Zach . . . they have 20 movies that did over $100 million at the box office.
