New Spice | Study like a scholar, scholar
"Do you want to be a scholar? Then study at the Harold B. Lee Library. Do your research here, study here, and be a scholar!"
(YouTube)
"Hello scholars. Look at your grades. Now look at mine. Now back at your grades. Now back to mine. Sadly, they’re not like mine. But if you stopped studying in a cave and started studying like me, they could be like mine.
The Harold B. Lee Library at Brigham Young University made this commercial promoting itself in imitation of the popular Old Spice commercials."
