‘Lambassador’ Kekovich addresses the U.N. in bid to declare 26 January International Australia Day
As Australia’s first ‘Lambassador’, Sam Kekovich departed Australian shores last week, embarking on a mission of global scale in his flight against unAustralianism. His journey has taken him to the United Nations headquarters in New York in a bid to get 26 January declared ‘International Australia Day’.
Says BMF executive creative director Warren Brown: “We have taken Sam’s crusade against unAustralianism to a whole new level, starting with an address at the United Nations. The world would be a better place if we all got together, tossed some lamb on the barbie and cracked a cold one. Sam’s address implores the whole world to follow one of our great traditions on Australia Day and celebrate togetherness with lamb. As Sam strides across the global stage, his message should eradicate unAustralianism from our planet for good.”

Pretty funny
Nice. Consistent. Kindy cheesy in parts but deliberately I guess.
Fretty punny.
Wish I’d written it. Here’s hoping those outside Australia get it.
Makes me proud to be an Australian.
Pretty, pretty, pretty good!
Nice. Felt last year’s effort was pretty weak after some great form, and this is a return to that brilliant form.
Yep. Had a smile on my face.
Beautifully written.
And rich, so rich you’ll want to go back for more – just like a hot lamb cutlet.
Nice mungo reference
It makes me and my family nervous.
That’s just plain old funny.
Good stuff.
I’m a writer and I’m jealous. Really great script, as per usual… funny and punny in the right measures. Bring on the lamb. Must be hard re-inventing Sam every year with a slightly new twist, but so far, so good. Well done.
Great work!
Sadly, my eyes bleed at the vegetarian parody….

Look, love the campaign.
What I really want to discuss is not that we should eat chops, but how to cook them.
Simple.
Get the barbecue hot, do not marinate chops, throw them on the flames naked (the chops that is) walk away, have a beer, turn chops after after finishing first stubby, have another stubby, take off barbecue just before burning and just after finishing second stubby..
Now, crack another stubby, put chops on plate, cover with tomato sauce and salt & pepper and eat at least 6 with white buttered bread.
Trust me. Heaven in the backyard.
can we just put this one to bed before we all fall asleep.
Can I have your address and the date of your next barbie please Backyard Chef.
G’Day 8.51.
It’s on this Tuesday, kicking off about 11.30. Ask the misses to bring some salad for the girls.
