Burger King apologized for a promo offering money and a lifetime of free burgers to any woman who could manage to become impregnated by a World Cup star. The idea of the now scrapped ad was for Russia to collect good football playing genes and ensure wins in the future.

This new slogan is... interesting. It really looks like it says something different to the untrained eye.
