Silly All-time best Commercials

Assuming anyone still watches them.....


I have a few that stick in my mind.

AIWA- guy is driving down the freeway with his music blasting out "Another One Bites the Dust" (Queen)...everyone he passes is giving him these AWFUL looks. He just keeps driving, bopping to the music to the horrified stares of the passers by...

The camera then pans across the car- he's driving a hearse. I have no clue what exactly the commercial was pushing, I guess car stereos but everytime I hear the song I crack up....guy driving a hearse blasting "Another One Bites the Dust"

Classic.

My fav, is a old block buster commercial. you see a guy in his 20's and his grandmother driving in a car. The whole time the grandmother is thanking him for taking her home, and wail she dose that he is undoing her seat belt, unlocking her door, all wail driving still. He then opens the door and pushes her out the door and screams "Tuck and roll grand ma! Tuck and roll!"
she lands on her but and waves at him like nothing happened.

The text comes up, "with 5 nights of gaming you will want all the time you can get."

Thanks DC for my AWESOME Signature

My other absolute fav is one I saw in Florida 10 years ago...

Guy is standing over a mountain with all sorts of gear on, just gorgeous scenery....he is about to jump (I think bungee jump.) He jumps off the mountain or cliff.and we see him fall for a sec before the screen goes to black. We hear a loud "thump" Suddenly , in white lettering, the most priceless words appear. "Got Jesus?".

I'm not very religious but this commercial was sooooo clever. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a commercial.

I saw this 10 years ago and still think it's one of the best spots EVER!

The coors' light football coach commercials, and the milwaukee's best real men drink real beer commercials. (the ones that come on during the World Series of Poker)

Budweiser Super Bowl commercial from a couple years back... there's a Clydesdale colt who sees a cart and tries to pull it. He tries as hard as he can and slowly, the cart starts moving. He manages to pull it all the way out of the barn, and then the camera goes back to the inside of the barn and you see an adult horse has been pushing it with its head the whole time. I love that commercial, it's just adorable.

Everytime someone says "Tastes great" I follow it up (in my head) with "Less filling"

Alot of the Budweiser commercials are funny as hell especially the super bowl ones , one the funniest I remember I only saw that one time , I guess it was too out there to air any other time ... It was a guy dressed as a clown standing on his hands (the guy is actually upright the costume makes him look like he is standing on his hands so the ass is where his head is ) he orders a beer and starts to drink it and everyone in the bar is gagging and gasping cause it appears he is drinking from his ass , he looks around and says I suppose a hotdog is out of the question and the bartender nods as he points to the door .

I also like the geico caveman commercials and the lil gecko is cool too ... There are so many funny ones out now it's hard to remember them all , some are better than the shows that are on

I like the new 'Rock Band' commercials, where all the kids are like rockstars from this video game...it convinced me that I needed to buy it, so I guess it was effective
