The anecdotic end of an era (II)

The epic struggle between capitalism and communism didn't end in 1990, as most of you might think. The latter died for good only in 1997, when Mikhail Gorbachev, the former General Secretary of the CPSU, starred in a Pizza Hut commercial made for the American market in order to raise money for the Perestroika Archives.

Definitely, history has a funny sense of humor.
