Jersey has stupid local commercials, but they're more tragic than funny. So I'll just go with a personal favorite...

YESSSSS, that's wallpaper for this topic! He's from Chicago, 708 is the Western suburbs area code (used to be the code for all of the burbs before cellphones needed more codes).

Any one who grew up in Toronto can never forget this man. Oldest finesser in the game.

I noticed you guys also pronounce 'pasta' differently from your commercials. The KFC commercial you guys had a few years ago w/ the Indian family who just immigrated & their son joining a hockey team w/ the kids making him feel welcome by taking him to KFC almost made me cry.

Not sure if wacky or creepy, but dancing mattress store guy from when I was living in Washington state (also has stores in Alaska too).

This is GOLD. You can get your whole bedroom done, from the bed to the flooring w/ the way he cuts a rug.
