LifeSavers Y2k

A tragic time drew near when LifeSavers decided to tempt fate & hold an election because pineapple flavored LifeSavers were deemed to be "Y2K-incompatible." Trillions were set to vote on new flavors strawberry & watermelon, or to keep pineapple by "upgrading its Y2K-compatibility."
In Visual Arts class, which I sat behind President Hoetrain, the assignment was to come up with possible advertisements chronicling this immense moment in our fragile history. Some ads for specific flavors, some for the contest itself, some for the possible winning ad. President Hoetrain was bias toward the already existent Pineapple, therefore I was forced to make fun of & be nice to.. Pineapple. My pick was watermelon. President Hoetrain laughed at the stupidity of my ads or perhaps it was my atrocious spelling & grammar.
Below are my ads, possibly the only ones left from that fearful time in our world history.
