What was the Butterfinger Defense League Video Contest?

Who was Averageman?

Averageman was my alter ego, developed in hopes of winning the Butterfinger Defense League Video contest. At different times he had a number of powers including:

  • The ability to always remember where we parked.
  • The ability to read pretty fast.
  • The ability to fall asleep anywhere
  • The ability to open a Butterfinger like they do in commercials
  • The ability to eat a Butterfinger bar really fast.

Other abilities that weren’t pictured include:

  • The ability to mostly not freak out at my kids when they spill things.
  • The ability to pack a suitcase and car with incredible precision.
  • The ability to pay down credit card debt over time.
