SpongeBob SquarePants is a Nickelodeon animated series that's been airing on the channel since 1999. Over the years, the characters from the series have been marketed for various products and commercial tie-ins, one of them being for the advertising campaign Got Milk?.

Got Milk?

In February 2001, Got Milk? published an ad for magazines featuring SpongeBob and Patrick both drinking a glass of chocolate milk and getting milk mustaches, with SpongeBob's disappearing instantly due to him being a sponge. On February 24th of that same year a commercial of the ad aired on TV.[1] The ad is similar to the print version but with SpongeBob, after his mustache keeps getting absorbed, ends up sticking his whole face in the glass.
