It was awesome ! I liked how Kevin isn't int until the breakdown of the song. I was wondering what happened to him!
Also, the ticker is hilarious at the bottom of the video

It really might be my favorite video they've done so far, (though OW probably still tops it--I go back & forth on that vid). The humor works really well with the music and there are a lot of layers to the jokes. Plus it's just plain BNL fun, which is one of the things I think all of us enjoy about the band & their music.

I was pleasantly surprised that it was fun and goofy, but I agree the humor works well with the music. I've watched it several times to catch the hilarious ticker comments. Baby dinosaurs!

The "We so called this" comment in the news crawl slays me every time! I so love this video!

I really like the video. It's well produced, it's got the guys in it, it's funny, and it's different.
My only "criticam" thought of the video is that I think it takes a song with a relatively serious legitimate message (even though something terrible COULD happen, it likely won't, and we shouldn't live in fear of that tiny risk), which some people have already posted various places thanking the band for writing a song that helped them cope with various things; it takes that relatively serious song and makes a total joke of a video. I really like the video as a joke, but my only I think it trivializes the song. Not sure whether that's a good or a band thing, it's just a thing. If they did it with like... War on Drugs, I think it would be a clearly terrible thing, but Odds Are is in a sort of limbo between a deep meaningful song and a solely fun, no-message tune. I think this video would have been perfect for a song like Summertime or Four Seconds, but I still like it for Odds Are.

I was watching the video again tonight and wondered if the "news" logo coffee cups are for sale anywhere. I would love to have one of those!

I have not been able to find where to buy them. I have tweeted at Roosterteeth, but they have not responded. If anyone finds out, let us know!
