30 Examples of Funny Ads for Inspiration
Published in GalleriesIn many settings advertisements tend to be ignored or overlooked. When flipping through a magazine you probably skip past the ads unless something really catches your attention. The same thing applies when it comes to driving by billboards, browsing online, or interacting anywhere else where ads appear.
One approach for ad designers to capture the attention and interest of viewers is to use humor. Most of us will stop and pay attention to ads if they grab our attention and make us laugh.
In this post we’ll showcase 30 examples of advertisements that user humor to make an impact on viewers.

Awesome list some images very funny thanks for sharing this
LOL XD my fav is the daughter one
I have been looking for some Travel Insurance Ads for inspiration, does anyone have links to some? Would be helpful… Thanks in advance
Number 29 is actually a Durex Condom advert. Dunno where you got the Burger King logo from, but the ad itself is a little sexual for a burger ad don’t you think?
DeeJay,
If you click the link on that ad and read the comments on the page you’ll see that this Burger King ad was done first and the Durex ad was a play off of this ad. It’s not sexual if the reason for the injury is a big burger.
These are great. I’m always looking for ideas to inspire critical thinking in my high school Language Arts classes. Thanks for the nice collection in one spot!
i like the first one and headphone(water fall) ad…
those are great!
Great collection of ads
Really love the pictures. This is the first time I see these pictures on a website. Are they your designs cause they are really creative.

Ha! These were awesome. The angry daughter one is a hoot. Oh those crafty ad execs *knee slap
