I thought the Sprint "Benny Hill" commercial was the funniest, but I never see it mentioned anywhere. Maybe it was regional?

That was a funny commercial

Commercials used to be a lot better years ago

The magic fridge was funny, but the yearling Budweiser clydesdale pulling the wagon (with help) made my eyes go blurry it was so sweet.

They need good ads. I can't think of anything I would be less inclined to drink than Bud Lite.

My favorite was the partying Chimps who kept turning the chart so the arrow pointed upward.

I don't know who the advertiser was though!!!

Money well spent? Huh?

"Magic fridge, Magic fridge." That was cute.

My favorite of the beer commercials was the little Clydesdale pony yoking up and pulling the big wagon (with the help of a couple of big Clydesdales behind the wagon, pushing, unbeknownst to the little guy). He was so proud of himself when he got that wagon out of the barn!

If it were magic, the beer would be a better brand then bud light.

I had to explain it, which of course put me in the uncomfortable position of having to explain how I knew so much about Benny Hill...

And please, for the love of all that is holy, no more ads with Puff Daddy, or P Diddy, or whatever the hell he calls himself now.

My vote! Reminded me of Madagascar, when the cute, fuzzy little duckling got snapped up by the crocodile and made the zebra's face start twitching...

The Benny Hill ad was very good too. I almost spit out my drink when the nurse came in chasing the bald guy.
