Brand's punny logo reveal skit from @wendys

Three people dressed as Wendy's employees stand in front of a Wendy's logo, surrounded by balloons, for what is presented as a new logo unveiling. After a countdown, one person pulls down the 'Wendy's' sign to reveal a 'Tendy's' sign as a pun. The group then celebrates with party poppers and streamers to promote the brand's chicken tenders.
