Wanted: Hand Model

This terrifying ad is pasted on a billboard beside north-bound I35 in Austin. Evey time I see it I wonder where in the world the ad people found that yeti, and why they shaved its hand, painted its nails and photographed it groping a pineapple. Or it's some awful Invasion of the Body Snatchers scenario: a real hand reproduced horribly wrong.
The limping execution aside, I am also unsure WHYY they thought the inclusion of a hand was appropriate in the first place. Even if the hand was, I don't know, proportionate and realistic, I would still be put off by the idea that someone had had their hand all over the pineapple used to make my drink.

Just sayin', SKYY.
