For today's post...
...
uh...
Dammit, I've got
nothing.
So, when we have nothing here at
Slay Monstrobot, we usually turn to the finest form of humor--
puns.
So stand by, here we go!!
...
uh...
Dammit,
still nothing!!
Fortunately, we have a little bit of
help today:

Yes, that's right, it's our old friend
AAU Superstar!!

"
Flattens his arch enemy"--get it, flat arches,
get it?? Missile-Toe?!? Oh, man, this is going to be
good. Take it away, AAU Superstar!!

Uh...OK, those are
pretty bad.

Hmmm, maybe this
wasn't such a good idea after all...

OK, now I think this commercial is definitely
over-promising on what their shoes can do. Plus, the punnery is starting to get
painful...
Ahhhhh, stop,
please stop!!

Make it
stop!! Make it
stop!!!!
Phew...no more puns!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Damn you, AAU Superstar!!!
And that, friends, is why I usually don't let fictional characters write blog entries here...
This ad was on the back cover of All-Star Comics #69 (1977)

Oh I don't know...I think "Begone Evil Sole!" is pretty catchy.
Wow...just...wow.
That surpasses the Hostess stuff. And the the Dr. J / Rick Barry basketball ads. Man... I thought I would be able to dunk like that. Maybe with AAU shoes...
Those shoes were crappy as...
..well, crap!
I had a pair like those in the ad and they ripped apart playing basketball!
Those shoes and I were just not meant to be...
wait for it...
sole mates!
