It didn't look like a wookie. - lund, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2it was a muppet

- elpottsy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4The Drunken Muppet is well known as one the best pilots on tatooine, rumoured to have once made the kessel run in under 5 parsecs!
- nixr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10It was this commercial that helped me decide to never drink and drive. As a six year old it was very convincing to me. I didn't know what drinking and driving was but I knew I never wanted to do it and end up like that white fluffy thing that sounded like a wookiee but wasn't. Thank you George Lucas. You saved my life.

- mlkmnz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Don't drink and drive? Pah! Han Solo was whacked up on wowie sauce when he walls flying the Falcon and that improved his piloting.
- cazabam, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0Boring video. I thought we'd get a montage of drunken tie fighter pilots, x-wing pilots and star destroyer commanders trashing their vehicles into planets, small moons and not small moons ;-)
