Stride Gum – Lederhosen
To kick off the new “Video of the Week” feature on this blog, I choose to include this Stride Gum commercial that is currently airing on TV in the US. I got a kick out of it and think you will too. Check back for more video’s of the week coming soon!
If you know of a video that you’d like to see featured as our “Video of the Week”, send a link to the video to website@dank.org and we will consider publishing it in a future post. Videos must be family friendly!

This is one of the funniest takes I’ve seen for this commercial. But, once again the Germans are in the Bavarian dress which is showcasing only one area of Germany. Yes, it is what Americans think of when “German” is refereed to and many Germans do where this type of ethnic dress during Oktoberfest season.
It is good to enjoy the tracht, beer and great food but we must step up and show positive contributions within our communities in order to gain visibility and respect.
Groups of us can volunteer at a soup kitchen, collect food for our local food pantries, give gifts to the needy during the holidays or even caroling at a local senior center. I hope this type of community service will spread throughout our chapters. It is this way that we will be seen in a positive light.
So funny… Perhaps Corinna and her group could be in the next commercial for Stride showcasing Northern Germany!!
