A tv show ''Breaking Bad'' is against Belize Tourism Board

On Friday August 23, 2013 a press release was sent out to the international media as a tv show ''Breaking Bad'' turned against BTB. As they were offer a ''Free vacation by BTB'' in Belize.
In the latest episode of Breaking Bad, Saul (Bob Odenkirk) nervously suggested that Walter White (Bryan Cranston) order a hit on his brother-in-law Hank (Dean Norris), telling Walt that he could send his brother-in-law “on a trip to Belize,” just as he did with old buddy Mike (Jonathan Banks). Walt is hypocritically aghast at the suggestion, but audiences everywhere welcomed the euphemism into the cultural lexicon.Belize also loved it. Today the Belize Tourism Board sent a toucan-laden public invitation to the entire cast of the show, offering to pay for a relaxing vacation in their naturally beautiful country for all of them, as a reward for five brilliant seasons of television. The ad is a fun and typically creative bit of marketing for the tourism-desperate country, and who knows, maybe the allure of food, friends, and music will be hard to resist. As Seth Stevenson noted in Slate last year, Belize, as a tourist destination, “lacks a sharply defined identity.” Maybe Breaking Bad can help

On the most recent issue of the show, a character suggested that meth kingpin Walt White deal with an enemy by sending them 'on a trip to Belize.' The country responded by extending invitations to visit to the cast of the show.

Thanks to Walt White's euphemism for murder, 'a trip to Belize,' the tourism board of the country extended an actual trip to Belize to the cast members of the show.

On the latest episode of "Breaking Bad," meth kingpin Walt White's sleazy lawyer advised him to send another character on a "trip to Belize." But he wasn't suggesting paying for an all-expenses-paid stay in sunny paradise so much as murder.
In response to the euphemism, the members of the Tourism Board of Belize have extended an invitation to the cast of "Breaking Bad" for an actual trip to their country.

'We were flattered to be included on your program last Sunday,' the tourism board wrote in a letter, 'Many of us are big fans of the show and can't wait to see what happens over the last six episodes.'

"We were flattered to be included on your program last Sunday," the tourism board wrote in a letter, "Many of us are big fans of the show and can't wait to see what happens over the last six episodes."
"So allow us the opportunity to entertain you we have the Blue Hole for Walt, purple fish for Marie, geology for Hank, great music and freindy people for Jesse, delicious breakfast cuisine for Walt Jr., several nice locations for Skyler, colorful clothing for Saul, and the list goes on."

The Belize Tourism Board invited the cast of 'Breaking Bad' to visit the country.

No word yet on whether the gang will take up Belize on their offer, but it's definitely a nicer propect than getting whacked by a drug lord. BTB was just trying to send a invitation for them to have great time in Belize.
