Still, this is freakin hilarious! Apparently, everybody’s favourite New Zealand pizza chain Hell’s Pizza had an ad going that had Sir Edmund Hilary, Heath Ledger and the Queen Mother dancing to Michael Jackson’s thriller. They caused offense, so the pulled the ad off the air.

I have a theory on who they were most offended over… but what’s your guess? I’ll let you know my idea shortly.

Disclaimer: New Zealand is one of the places I call home and love dearly. Just in case anyone wants to know…

UPDATE: my guess: Sir Edmund Hilary. Obviously.
