Coke Super Bowl Ad Upsets Arab Group

It’s a race to the Coke, but the Arabs won’t win! They aren’t even given a chance to try at all. In a new 2013 Super Bowl commercial, it is a race and fans get to vote on who wins and makes it to the Coke first. An Arab group is really mad though because they don’t even let fans vote for the Arab guy that is out there! What the heck?

I have to say that I totally see their point! He didn’t even get a chance to win so why have him there in the first place? I am not impressed by the way they handled it and they should have thought about that first.

Check out the video below. Let me know if you agree that it is not okay in the comments section. I am curious to hear what you guys think about this Super Bowl commercial. Should it even be allowed to air?

    I see nothing wrong with this ad. The camel was a
    typical stubborn camel. How nothing to do with the
    Arab. Could have been anyone

      What’s wrong with the commercial, how silly to call it a racist commercial, it is more of, “the camel being stubborn.”
      come on now people, really…

    Seriously? Arabs are the last people on this planet to complain about someone else judging them. All they do is judge everyone who isn’t an Arab.
    I wonder if the Aussie’s are complaining about Aussie’s being stereotyped as all being like Mad Max.

    I do not usually comment on anything,but this is stupid. Even the commercial is stupid. Did I laugh no, did I think anything about the arab man and the camel. No. It was a guy pulling on a camel.Big deal. This is a million dollar commercial get a life COKE find something that is funny, not something stupid.Take it off the air who cares. As far as race goes I am sick to death of hearing about everything being racial. I never heard so much garbage about race since Obama took office. I thought things were gona be better no more racial comments because he was sitting in the whitehouse. It seems to just have gotten worse. I feel like I am living back in the 50’s and 60’s again. This nee
    ds to stop. Wake up America.

      The Arab is not the focus of the ad. I don’t think the ad is effective – but certainly not racist against anyone – cowboys, bikers, or the Arab !
