Wahoo's Chinese New Year Free Gift from Wahoo's Fan on Vimeo.
This Wahoo's Fish Tacos video isn't nearly as funny as that Hitler/iPad spoof using footage from Downfall. It's not even close. But what's weird is that although it's clearly a commercial, it doesn't seem to be directly attributable to the company itself. It was posted by someone named “Wahoo's Fan”.
Furthermore there's no hint of what this “free gift” for Chinese New Year will be, or any acknowledgment that when they'll be giving it out this weekend (whatever it is), they'll be a week late on the holiday.
Still, one point should be awarded for trying to go viral, and another one for being the only Mexican fast food chain that celebrates Chinese New Year.
Before becoming an award-winning restaurant critic for OC Weekly in 2007, Edwin Goei went by the alias “elmomonster” on his blog Monster Munching, in which he once wrote a whole review in haiku.
