In Las Vegas we have a lot of strip clubs. Recently one club in particular has been having advertisements on pretty early in the evening. Its the same commercial every time; with a kind of tinkley, wind chime, xylophone music and a bunch of scenes with women in bikini sized outfits. All of this is somewhat unremarkable.
This is what gets me: while my nephews are playing (2 and 4 years old), crashing cars, wrestling, whatever the commercial starts with the tinkle tinkle and everything else stops. They walk up to the television and stare in silence and when the commercial ends they go right back to what they were doing.
Should we turn off the TV? Alone and unprompted my two year old nephew will cross rooms like some Pavlovian puppy to watch this commercial. How is that possible?
I couldn't find a clip of the commercial...
