The Marlboro Man
I grew up with their slogan, "Come to where the flavor is." I saw on a newsfeed that one of the original marlboro men had passed away.

I know he wasn't one of the original cast, but every time I hear about or read about the marlboro man, I no longer think of the iconic cowboy from the west, I immediately think about this gentleman that I met in the Solomon Islands. He is wearing a cowboy hat of sorts and who knows, perhaps he was part of a more grass roots advertising campaign for Marlboro.
The Marlboro Man.... the flavor is in the Solomon Islands!
