The Ides of March

A Story by Abishai100

Will modern era Western commercial flowers/laurels open up the proverbial 'doors' of distancing for the Masked Racer?

Another capitalism vignette inspired by Capitalism: A Love Story (Michael Moore).

A 'nerdist-racer' in the West was doing stunt and media work on the Autobahn (Germany) and for the Daytona (USA) and was about to make a Butterfinger-ad with a Western model, having become a celebrity in racing and known as the Masked Racer!

MASKED-RACER: I like driving on the Autobahn, because it offers great media-window(s) as well as sporting daydream(s).

He'd been now tied to the Western model Katherine Muse, whose work with Dior and Boss made her a global symbol of convenience-markets, and now this Butterfinger campaign during the Super Bowl (USA) would cement her 'commercial tie' to the famous Masked Racer.

The Butterfinger ad would be quite an achievement for the Masked Racer and a nice laurel indeed for Muse. This was a time of incredible Super Bowl revenue(s), so the media-window into the world of ad-placements in sports-media was a signpost for capitalism geometry. Everyone likes Butterfinger...

MASKED RACER: I think in another life I wasn't a hockey-soccer-racer but a dentist!

Sales of Butterfinger soared, and when it was an official sponsor of the new Stanley Cup adapted Qatar ice-hockey game featuring the Penguins as the main laurel-team, it surely benefited from the Super Bowl media-window created by the Masked Racer and Ms. Muse.

The Masked Racer and Muse married and moved into a Sturbridge estate in the East Coast and discovered a need for adequate/sturdy home-security response systems and guardians, since this media commercialism had placed celebrities into the unfamiliar role of residential targets!
