beerme1 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I'm one of the first people to take exceptions to any cheap shotting of Buffalo. But I gotta say, this f'n commercial makes me laugh every. Damn. Time. Kudos to John Goodman for the voiceover. Well done! https://www.instagram.com/p/CxbMtTXL9Oe/ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills1212 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Its funny, I thought that as well last week and googled it, but there was no credit anywhere for Goodman. The only place Ive been able to find confirmation is the youtube video where someone asks in the comments and FD answers yes. It sure sounded like him, but every once in a while you get a voice that sounds like someone else so you cant be sure. Gotta watch out for the knock off Morgan Freemans out there! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 FanDuel's CEO is a big Bills fan. She makes sure the team is featured in a lot of their commercials. 5 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Buffalo's cold in the winter and it would suck to be stuck at a Buffalo bus stop at night without a shirt on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boater Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I wasn't sure if that commercial was showing nationally, or just locally. It brings up sad memories.

Utah John Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I've been seeing another commercial showing a young boy getting a Bills jersey, then getting more jerseys over the years as he meets a girl, has a family, and eventually buys a jersey for his grandchild. I have no idea at all what the product is that that commercial is selling, but I really love seeing the progression. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 OP, thanks for sharing as I assumed you meant the Tasker commercial. I’ve not seen this one, it I’m not really an Insta guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived there for four years between 1976 and 1980 when I was in graduate school at what was then Memphis State University. Great city. Great mix of cultures. I just couldn’t take the weather. Way too hot and humid for me. As a lifelong western and central New Yorker I missed those cold nights in Buffalo when I was down there. In the Syracuse area now for 40+ years.

C.Biscuit97 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I thought it was a cheap shot. Greta joke, it gets cold in Buffalo. Buffalo is Theo not place it ever gets cold apparently!!!
