I heard the commerical got the accent down pretty damn good, and the guy is a typical South Philly Italian greaseball.. But I hear to stay away from the cheese steak it's promoting.
: I was hoping to find a link to the commercial online somewhere, but Im incredibly lazy, so I didnt look very hard.
: In the beginning of the commercial, Jack- head of the Jack in the Box Corperation presumably- sends some guy from a cubical to go to Philadelphia to fully absorb the wonders of its culture and mainly the Philly Cheesesteak, Jack's next great thing for his menu.
: It cuts to Jack wandering a busy office six months later to this same fellows cubical. Jack asks him what he found out.
: Our friend from the cube left the office in the requesit suit and tie. When he pops up from behind the free standing walls he is sporting a mullet, jean jacket, scruffy goatee and the promising beginnings of a mighty beergut. He says,
: "Hey Jack-Eeee!, I soaked up Philly like a Sp-unge."
: I guess you had to be there,
:
: : : well the only thing i know is that Jack in The Box have that rad little clown jack with the hat that you get to put on your antennae....i love ptutting things on my antennae!
: : Heh-heh, you said antennae...
