He’s more AI than Warren and he’s Italian.

The guy in that ad was Italian and not Indian at all. LOL.

Iron Eyes Cody (born Espera Oscar de Corti, April 3, 1904 – January 4, 1999) was an Italian-American actor. He portrayed Native Americans in Hollywood films,[2] famously as Chief Iron Eyes in Bob Hope's The Paleface (1948). He also played a Native American shedding a tear about litter in one of the country's most well-known television public service announcements, "Keep America Beautiful".[3] In 1996, Cody's half-sister said that he was of Italian ancestry, but he denied it.[3][4]

The Atlanta Braves used to have a mascot, 'Chief Noc-A-Homa'. Dressed in full regalia, he had a tepee in the outfield stands, and would do a dance on the pitcher's mound before every game.

He was an Italian dude, too.
