THE SPOT
"Heartburn Hotel" (:60) introduces Tummy, an animated stomach that serves as Prevacid’s "spokesorgan." Tummy, who’s suffering from heartburn, travels down Acid Street and checks into the Heartburn Hotel. After Tummy illustrates the common symptoms that may indicate acid reflux disease, he takes his Prevacid and checks out of the hotel feeling much better.
