Brownstein Crashes The Superbowl

One of our most creative friends, Mr. Alec Brownstein (sound alert!), has created a video for the Doritos Crash the Superbowl Contest (sound alert!).

If Alec wins, he receives $5 million.

So, nonpretentious readers – assuming that Alec makes it to the finalist rounds (which he will!) – make sure you get your vote on starting January 5th, 2010 and maybe, *just maybe*, Alec will send us some free Doritos.

once you’re done reading it, you’ll feel like you know him.

What can I say? He’s a champ.
