Pringles Potato Chips 'Poker' Commercial (1973)

[@alanmorris7669]

I remember when my mama first bought these chips back in the early '70s. My brother Jerry could hardly wait to get back home and pour them on the table like they do in this commercial. My mama screamed, "Put them damn chips back in the container before I throw 'em away!

[@baconbap]

I always wanted to pour them into a bowl to see if they did indeed have as many chips as a big bag.

[@baconbap]

Ha! Moms in those days didn't mess around. They had too much to do to put up with shenanigans. Ha! Always threatening to throw something away. 😀

[@alanmorris7669]

@@baconbap Pringles has the same amount of chips as a large bag. The commercial makes Pringles appear to have more chips by meticulously placing them in a bowl.

[@tcaddone]

This was filmed in 1968 when Pringles were first introduced. They continued to use the commercials into the early 70's. Written, produced and directed by Thomas Scott Cadden at Tatham-Laird & Kudner.

[@mr.scottpowell]

Ah, that's why it seems a little older than 1973

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

There was color TV in '68.

I still love Pringles.

[@eblackadder3]

Pringles weren't sold where I lived until 1975, that's when I first saw this commercial and another one with Emmaline Henry (Amanda Bellows on I Dream of Jeannie). I haven't seen that one since 1976.

POTATO CHIPS? IN THAT THING?!!

FOESHOW

[@Naminski1a]

Stack Pringles. Make endless new flavors.

[@mrbubetube]

and now every can of pringles I get at Walmart is all busted to hell. I'm lucky if I find half a can of unbroken chips

[@waikeonglim7703]

Odd thing about Pringles: People keep eating them all in one sitting

[@baconbap]

Yup. Still to this day, only in different flavors.

Just like Over the Hedge Spuddies, enough just isn’t enough.

[@WolverinePete]

The guy in the middle in the shirt and tie was Stanley Clements aka Duke from "The Bowery Boys".

[@erinmefford8041]

Wolverine Pete I loved when tcm showed the Bowery boys movies on Saturdays I just watched a episode of the Lone Ranger on fetv that had Stanley clements as a outlaw he was a good actor I also liked him in the east side kids as stash

[@davidsmith5023]

He took over Leo Gorcey's role when Gorcey left the series. He was also Gloria Grahams' first hubby.

[@baconbap]

@@davidsmith5023 Dang you boys are my generation.

[@ThePiquedPigeon]

Only now I realize how old Pringles are!!

[@baconbap]

Thank you. Old as me honey. I loved the commercials.

[@samuelgriffin4167]

Pringles crisps goes absolutely great with ranch dip dressing

[@Sunsetdrivein]

I spotted actors Stanley Clements and Norman Grabowski in this commercial.

[@jubalcalif9100]

Good eye ! I recall Stanley as Leo Gorcey's replacement in the late 50s "Bowery Boys" movies and Norman from a couple of 60's Elvis movies.

[@erinmefford8041]

Jubal Calif yep he was also in the east side kids as stash and as adult was in a episode of the Lone Ranger as a outlaw I just watched that episode this morning on fetv best channel ever they show classic tv like hazel Roy Rogers matlock and other cool shows

[@baconbap]

@@erinmefford8041 Hazel. Shirley Booth. Now THERE was an actress.

[@kevinbutler1955NYC]

Norm appeared in Disney Films"The Misadventures Of Merlin Jones","The Monkey's Uncle" and"The Gnome Mobile".

[@leerocheleau1465]

The can itself can be made into a steamroller but after that you'll want more chips

[@nerd2739]

Pringles is the most commercial

[@Devninjago96]

0:58 wink

[@MelvinOfTheWorld]

Now when you buy Pringles, half the chips in the can are crushed! Sons of bitches,...

[@fromthesidelines]

The potato chip industry believed they were "fake chips', too- because Pringles are fashioned from dehydrated, dried potatoes, and not sliced and "chipped", as "real potatoes" are. They wanted Procter & Gamble to eliminate the word "potato chips" from the Pringles cans. And the Food and Drug Administration agreed. In a landmark 1975 ruling, they informed P&G that after 1977, they could no longer be identified as "potato chips". So, they became "potato crisps" instead.

[@kurtkauffman4326]

The canisters are now sold individually.Had twin pack one time.

[@Playsinvain]

Pringles. Nice intro

[@doloreshuntoon7698]

Yummy!!!

[@wrestlingwithjay3770]

70's

[@mrmjb1960]

Before they were ordered not to use Chips nor Newfangled in their name..after that they were known as just Crisps.

[@eblackadder3]

Does anyone know the actor at 0:08, 0:18 and 0:31? He was in many commercials in the 1970s including ones for Safeway and Totinos. I've been trying to find out his name for years with no luck.

[@BionicDisco]

Wish I knew. It'd be great to identify all of these gentlemen. I know we've got Stanley Clements and Norm Grabowski in there.

[@eblackadder3]

@@BionicDisco Yep, I know who they are. That guy I'm wondering about used to do a lot of commercials from about the late 60s to the early '80s. In the early 70s, he was in a series of commercials for Safeway and later in the decade for Totinos Pizza with actress Kit Smythe. She called him "John" in one of the ads, that may be his actual first name. He may have also done some TV acting, but I'm not sure about that.

[@mrmjb1960]

Kellogg's now makes them.

Are you hungry? Why not have some pringles. Its exquisite cuisine. Come on in and purchase these chips. Come and eat these crisps. Whats that? You’re going to get Doritos instead? Really now? You think you have the audacity to buy another brand of chips. You will regret that purchase.

everybody actin surprised over some pringles we know they are cool and are fresh but not after you put them on the poker table and poked at em to make sure they are not broke, sure looks like a lot but not highly you do need to cans of pringles to match one bag of chips broken or not
