Jerky
There are a series of ads known as "Messin' With Sasquatch," where people play practical jokes on bigfoot. In every case, Sasquatch gets annoyed and is soon committing grievous bodily harm on these hapless individuals.
I'm not sure why they mess with him. If bigfoot were around, I'd give him (or her) wide berth. Not that I have much sympathy for Sasquatch. I generally root for the humans--after all, it's just bigfoot, screw him. Clap him in chains and sell him for scientific experimentation. But the advertisers understand most people are willing to sell out their species and enjoy seeing bigfoot take revenge.
The ads, by the way, are for beef jerky. Not sure if I see the connection.

beef jerky!
Does it help if you comment #1 that in Rob Lowe's Parks & Rec character's voice?
Gee LA Guy's speciesist behavior now has me rooting for the sasquatch.
There is a beefy dude and there is jerkiness in this commercial.
Viewers enjoy jerks but they need to see the jerks get their comeuppance so the viewers don't start to think poorly of themselves for liking the jerks. Like in old family/action pictures- you need to see the befuddled bad guy walking around dazed after the hero has dealt with him.
