One would expect to see the late US president George Washington in many places, from statues, to town names, on the side of a mountain, and on a dollar bill, but not on a dollar bill sneakily placed within the lettuce of a chicken burger, which is where he was sighted in 2008 in a KFC ad. The effect often seems to coincide with a beautiful actress appearing with the cover.īONUS: Disney's Lion King was also put into the spotlight as a freeze frame moment showed what appeared to be dust forming the word SEX, but now the widley accepted opinion is that it actually spells SFX, and was added as an easter egg by the SFX team, though nothing has ever been confirmed.

When the EU banned tobacco advertising in July 2005, Marlboro was a sponsor of Ferrari - one of the most successful Formula One racing teams.
