Spuds MacKenzie. Spuds MacKenzie is a fictional dog character created for use in an extensive advertising campaign marketing Bud Light beer in the late 1980s. The Spuds MacKenzie mascot and campaign were created by a 23 year old art director, Jon Moore. At the time he was working at Needham, Harper & Steers a Chicago Illinois advertising agency.

The story of Mad Max was written.
