[Ray-Ban](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rayban-meta-smart-glasses) follows their ‘Cow gives birth to a dude’ viral with another ‘Never Hide’ campaign that brings the dance floor to the streets. Literally.

The new ‘Disco Ballers’ spot by [Never Hide Films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiders-keepers) (Ray-Ban’s undercover ad campaign) follows two dudes getting ready for a night at the disco.

But instead of going to a club, the guys bring out their portable disco ball and get the party started right in the streets of NYC.

I am not exactly sure which is more gross, the 6’2” guy emerging from the cow’s backside in slimy undies or the pimped-out disco ballers in pink and gold tops wearing cowboy shoes...
