In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Wa zaaaaa” is an epic card of the Memes World series 77, number 22889 of the collection, and the 64th best-known meme of its 141 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Wa zaaaaa” meme mean?
This phrase expresses a casual greeting, often infused with absurd humor or good-natured mockery. It captures the spirit of the original gag: friends calling each other and repeating the word longer and with more bizarre intonations. On the internet, it’s used to imitate this iconic scene, highlight a mundane situation with excess, or simply reference that classic early-2000s parody comedy moment.
Where does the “Wa zaaaaa” meme come from?
The origin dates back to December 20, 1999, during the broadcast of a Budweiser commercial on *Monday Night Football*. Created by DDB Chicago and inspired by a short film by Charles Stone III, the campaign featured friends calling each other while saying "Wassup?" repeatedly and distortedly. The ad’s success led the producers of *Scary Movie* (2000) to include the scene in the film, months after principal photography wrapped. Marlon Wayans, playing Shorty Meeks, reused the gag to greet his friends, thus transplanting the advertisement into a horror parody context, particularly around Ghostface. This inclusion made the catchphrase a staple of American comedic cinema.
