CORYDON, IN, March 10, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The wildly funny new commercial for Corydon, Indiana's local pharmacy, Butt Drugs, is sweeping the Internet and causing a stir. Backed by a clever old-fashioned jingle, the video offers up 60 seconds jammed with comical lines delivered by folksy locals, such as: "Free parking in the rear" and "When I think drugs, I think Butt Drugs," poking fun at the store's oddball name. The spot is racking up record numbers of hits at www.ButtDrugs.com.

The one-of-a-kind commercial is indicative of the quirky nature of the small town of Corydon, with its non-traditional outlook, entertaining stores and fun and friendly people. With an old-time soda fountain and incredible customer service that's equally old fashioned, Butt Drugs is a major tourism draw. Serving locals and visitors alike for three generations, Butt Drugs was founded in 1952 by William "Blackie" Butt, R Ph, but is run today by granddaughter, Katie Butt. Butt Drugs is a friendly neighborhood establishment that's a must stop for travelers visiting the area.

With a staff of funny employees -- and an even funnier name -- Butt Drugs proves that hard work and a sense of humor pay off. More information on Butt Drugs and the many other interesting sites around Corydon, visit www.thisisindiana.org.

The Corydon pharmacy won the chance to receive a free commercial supported and sponsored by Microbilt Corporation, joining forces with Rhett & Link, Inc. who produced the spot. Working to create a "comical, interesting, yet realistic" video, Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal, the two self-proclaimed "Internetainers" achieved their goal with the irreverent commercial that has rapidly become a viral hit.

Beyond the hysterical commercial, quaint shops and entertaining people, Corydon, offers travelers an incredible collection of historic sites and memorable attractions. A wine trail offers travelers a chance to experience firsthand the region's wonderful wineries. Visitors marvel at the natural wonders of two spectacular cave systems. The Corydon Capitol State Historic Site marks Corydon's place as Indiana's first capital, while travelers enjoy touring the Leora Brown School, one of the nation's oldest standing early African American schoolhouses. The Constitution Elm is another favorite visitor site, under which Indiana delegates met to draft the state's first constitution.
