‘Many Voices, Many Visions’ A new Arthur Ross Gallery exhibition features artworks from Penn’s collection that echo today’s social, political, and environmental upheaval.

The duo pulls a series of comedic publicity stunts to get their message across, including a slow-mo clip of Garth, a pair of adorable babies dressed just like them and, of course, the celebrity star power of Cardi B.

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.
