Mike Myers and Dana Carvey, the stars who created and brought to life local-access legends Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar on the classic ‘Saturday Night Live’, ‘Wayne’s World’ skits and on the big screen, have reunited to ask viewers to ‘Eat Local’ on behalf of Uber Eats via independent creative company Special Group U.S. and Australia.
Joining them in Wayne’s basement rec room is chart-topping rapper Cardi B, who flexes her flair for comedy in the 60-second Super Bowl spot, which will air in the third quarter.
The spot, ‘Eat Local’ opens with the memorable, guitar riff intro: “Wayne’s World, party time, excellent.” The spot leverages Wayne and Garth’s jovial personalities to give the advertising industry some good-natured ribbing.

Being dependent on the demands of clients meant that some agencies were definitely harder hit than others. But agencies got by, not just due to the sacrifices made by staff and leadership, but by becoming the exact partner their clients needed to navigate the chaos and prepare for what’s next, getting scrappy to pick up all small pieces of work, and chasing after a surprisingly busy pitch calendar.
