ESPN Commercial

Post by **Sylvus** » January 16, 2004, 12:59 pm

Lately, ESPN has been showing a relatively humorous commercial that shows this guy and this chick, wearing rival college sweatshirts, making out, and then it says on the screen something about how "Without sports, this wouldn't be disgusting".

I was just wondering if they had different ones for different regions, and who the teams were? It's Michigan and Ohio State up here, of course. Any of you guys seen different ones, or are they all Michigan/Ohio State?

DC here, Michigan and OSU for our version too!

They show that one in Cali too, so I think it is just one. Undoubtably, they have more in the works for other schools...the concept is just too funny not to make the commercials.

First time I saw it, definitely was thinking WTF?

OSU-UM here too in Florida.

Best commercial ever from espn was this one:
Sportscenter guy and a hockey player was sitting in the cafeteria. The hockey player turns to the sportcenter guy and starts talking about some Canada cup or something along those lines. (I know nothing about hockey). The sportcenter guy looks down at the hockey guys plate and asks, "What kind of cheese you have on that burger?" The hockey guy says "American?". Sportscenter guy says "AMERICAN,THAT'S RIGHT! AMERICAN".

Best commerical evar.

When I first seen them making out, I was wtf kind of commercial is this. Then when the camera zoomed out, I have to admit I almost lost my lunch. The chick should be burned at the stake.

Its on like every 15 mins on ESPN. Its pretty disgusting. I have to change the channel everytime commercials come on during sportscenter.

Personally I think the commercials for sportscenter are some of the best on the air.
