designate a sober driver. Placement of this creative would be most
appropriate in restaurants, bars, retail establishments that sell alcohol
and publications targeting adults.

could be served in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day and the copy stresses

retail establishments that sell alcohol and publications targeting adult
males.

(fines, damage, etc.). Placement of this creative would be most appropriate
in restaurants, bars, retail establishments that sell alcohol and
publications targeting adults.
Ol’ Irish Limerick

establishments that sell alcohol and publications targeting adults.
