Elijah Dukes Tried His Best, But Couldn't Quite Swallow A Bag Of Weed Before Being Arrested
Elijah Dukes, aka Elijah David Dukes Jr., aka Fly Eli, was arrested early this morning in Tampa. I know, not news.

This bizarre TV spot for Old Milwaukee beer starring Will Ferrell aired in exactly one TV market last night during the Super Bowl's local ad block at the end of the first half.

It's not really a scam; that's a sensationalist headline. Just jumping the gun on what will spend all day being a very dumb story.
