A Ball State University professor called the campus police after a student declined to switch seats during a Tuesday morning marketing class. Did the Planters nuts people just kill off Mr. Peanut? They posted an early Super Bowl ad where he drives off a cliff with Wesley Snipes and comedian Matt Walsh in the car. They're all hanging onto a tree branch that can't hold their weight. So Mr. Peanut sacrifices himself and lets go and a message pops up that says, "Mr. Peanut: 1916 to 2020." Are You Okay With This?
