Phallic Camel

In my media class today, we were talking about subliminal advertising. My professor was saying how it's her personal opinion that this does not happen, since she never knew of any circumstances when she worked in advertising. That subject's still up for debate.

In the course of things, we got discussing different subliminal messaging, when the subject of Camel cigarettes came up. People claim that there is a naked man hidden in the camel's front hip on the Camel pack. If you have a good imagination, you can kind of see a man with an erection, standing with his hand on his hips. Or a Sasquatch. I'm not sure. Here's the pic...you decide.

Also, we were told that Joe Camel's snout is made to look like a penis and testicles. I can kind of see this, but I think there are some seriously horny people out there with nothing better to do than look for sexual images in pictures.



So, is this a global conspiracy on the part of Camel cigarettes to trick gay men and lusty wenches into smoking their cigarettes? And if this is true, why don't they advertise on Will and Grace? Where's Scooby Doo when a real mystery appears?
