It is nearing that glorious Sunday of sub eating, prop bets, and commercial watching. This blog will be a tribute to my favorite commercials, past and present. I see several follow-ups to this one, so readers, get excited!!!
Current Commercials
Funniest
Little Ceasar's commercial where a man walks into the store orders a pizza and does not have to wait. He exclaims, "No waiting!! No Rules!" and proceeds to take off his shirt. The Little Ceasar employee tells him that he can's take off his shirt. He exlaims "One rule."

Most Deceptive
White's Metal Detecting commercial where a man not only finances a trip to South Africa with his finds, but also buys his wife her very own metal detector. After spending years at parks with my dad looking for treasure, I believe the Real Men of Genius tribute to Metal Detectors (see Funniest Past Commercials) is much more accurate!
Worst Commercial
I actually love this one, but it is pretty bad. There is a power outage and a family is trying to eat dinner. An older lady goes to put a forkful of food into her mouth, but she ends up missing her mouth and hitting herself in the face with her fork. It then shows how that would never happen if you had a certain lantern. It is awesome.
Past Commercials
Most Memorable:
I think I was probably around 5 when I saw this commercial. A man working at a restaurant has a container of cheese and it bounces. He then says "It's Cheese" I don't know if the commercial was in fact for cheese or if it was advertising a different product,
Most quoted by me
Suprisingly it is not the Whazzup commercials. It was a Snickers commercial that came out when I was in 8th grade. A football player takes a really hard hit. His coach starts asking him questions to check out how lucid he is. He replies with appropriate answers until the coach asks him his name. "I'm Batman"
Most disappointing
There were these stuffed animal cats and dogs. They would have puppies or kittens. You would buy them and then each would have a varying amount of kittens or puppies in their belly. I finally got one for Christmas. In the commercial the liters always had so many puppies or kittens, mine only had one. For some reason, that really upset me as a kid. hmmm.
