Have any of you seen that Evander Holyfield Taco Bell commercial yet? It is freakin' hi-larious. It's good to see this partially-functioning, punch-drunk former bruiser making a few more million as the taco ambassador to the world. I can't get enough of this commercial. You can barely understand a word this man is saying, plus you get to see him in "old lady" drag. About his speech, hell, I don't even think it is an offshoot of some bastardized form of Ebonics. It's more like a deaf Buckwheat walking into an alien ship and muttering random shit to the little gray dudes kind of language. I have been riffing a bit on this commercial and here is my version of how it goes:
Counter Girl: Welcome to Taco Bell. May I take your order?
EH: I hadda two hanga pangdoh tacknos peaze!
Counter Girl: Usually, a man your size can only eat one of those.
EH (pointing over to an old lady drag version of himself): Bud I pa-tadda na mama puh nunch!
The End.
I think there should be a sequel to this commercial where Mike Tyson sits down next to Evander in the Taco Bell and just stares at his ear, licking his lips, then takes takes a long sip from his Baja Blast. Evander could just say this line: "Oh no, potado!" Good advertising doesn't have to make any sense so long as it is funny as hell.

Have you seen "The Hangover"? I think the Mike Tyson's bit is really funny. If you haven't seen it, see it!
I loved that movie. Mike Tysons parts were great.
Yeah but does that commercial make you want to go eat there? Can't wait to hear your dreams, if it does!
Oh Taco Bell... Mmmm and baja blast is like crack soda -- i cant go to TB without having a cup of it!

Ok, I LOVE Baja Blast.
It's so wrong.
Even Evander cannot spoil my pure, true love.
Tyson though, eeeh, I dunno, it's best they leave him out of it.
Jules~ I like all tacos;)
