Buffal0 Bill5 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I know this was slightly touched on in the SB commercial thread, but what the heck did they do. It barely resembled his pitch. I thought they were going to produce an ad presented by a fan, not take a few pointers from a fan and create their own ad. Where did the horse come from? It turned from Dick Butkus to Brett Favre butt kiss. What the ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tomcat Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I wondered the same thing.....They took the idea only....too bad. Although I'm sure he got some nice $$ for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although this concept was sort of done by Domino's last year, when the dude hugs the pizza delivery guy after delivering the last pizza of the season.

RuntheDamnBall Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I liked it, especially the Dixieland dirge they played instead of Boyz II Men (probably a practical decision that cost way less than paying B2M for publishing); it was a nice little tip of the hat to New Orleans. The Favre at the end thing: silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Bottom line -- Brett Favre is to Americans what David Hasselhoff is to Germans. It was a clever touch to show Favre with the tag line "for some of us, it's a little harder." I didn't mind how the director interpreted and tweaked the concept.
