Seriously, it's the only ad compaign I can think of that makes me go "I really don't know if I want to go there anymore."

Some people do find the King creepy. I don't, but I know others do. I guess I don't get why people think The King is creepy, but not other mascots. It must be the mask - his face is motionless and emotionless. Kinda like McDonald's old characters - Grimace, Hamburgler, etc.
