Billy sells his soul to the Colonel

KFC Filler

KFC Filler

Did anyone hear Billy Bowden at stumps today? I was listening on the radio and just after the last ball was bowled Billy said directly into the stump mic words to the effect of “Time for a KFC Filler meal boys?”

The dodgy kiwi prick! Surely if the ICC haven’t yet got a sanction for this they’ll be up late tonight writing one, after all, having the wrong sized advertisement on your bat is a level 2 offence, and taking the wrong brand of soft drink/snack into a game will get you evicted!

Edit I found the footage, it was much clearer on the radio and Jim Maxwell and Kerry O’Keefe were both quite shocked at hearing it. Here’s the footage from Channel 9′s coverage.

It could just be Billy joking with Clarke, but the cynic in my says Cash for Comment!

  1. The cheeky kiwi cùnt!

    Nothing like advertising battery raised, faeces smeared chicken to the kids, eh Billy!

    Burn the fuckwit I say! But, then I say that a lot.

  2. An ironic indictment of the consumer culture propagated by television advertising, judging by the grin from that arch post-modernist Michael Clarke.

  3. Because, for the first time in memory, we’re the ones on the wrong end of a whitewash!

  4. Weren’t KFC sponsors of domestic cricket in australia last season or sometime before that?

  5. Still are, our T20 comp is called the KFC Big Bash.

    There’s a bunch of really dodgy ads on TV involving our cricketers and Billy promoting their junk food as well.

  6. Don’t worry; he’ll probably donate his ill-gotten gains to that dodgy church he’s part of.

  7. You have hit the nail on the head with this you are so right, I have been reading plenty on this over the last few days and you seem to have the most information. I will link your blog from my site for others to follow.

    Thanks

  8. interestingly, the last great divide in kiwi culture is the schism between working class and very working class. the former eat at mcdonalds the latter at KFC. so maybe he was making a political statement?
