Winning the New York Lottery Makes You Exactly as Funny as Andy Richter

Two fairly amusing New York Lottery commercials from DDB New York illustrate just what it means to be "that kind of rich." In one spot, a lottery millionaire spends big bucks on elaborate effects to convince his pal that aliens have invaded—just so he can snap a picture of the guy's terrified face. (Chill, dude, it's clearly CGI.) The other ad shows a guy who cracks people up wherever he goes because he can afford to have a team of comedy writers led by Andy Richter feeding him lines through an earpiece. At a traffic stop, he warns the cop who's giving him a ticket, "Whatever you do, don't look in the trunk." Ha. That's rich—kind of. The spot closes with Richter telling his staff, "All right, we need dip jokes." With all that jackpot money flying around, I'm surprised they couldn't afford a bigger finish. Bigger dip jokes. Now, that's rich!
