That other thread inspired me to create this one. Anyone have any local commercials that are pretty famous in your city? Here are some that anyone who's anyone from Chicagoland should know by heart. :D

THAT EAGLEMAN COMMERCIAL IS SO DAMN FUNNY :rofl:

I wanted to find a Billy Fuccillo commercial but apparently they're too annoying even for YouTube.

Eagleman is my LIFE. Oh my god. I wish those were still on because clearly I love them. They also had an Eaglewoman one where she held two eggs in a rather suggestive position.

Two brothers, Barry and Elliot, own Jordan's Furniture. They've been making their own commercials for about 30 years.

There's a husband and wife, Bernie and Phyll, who own a chain of furniture stores called Bernie and Phyll's. They've been around forever too, and they star in their own commercials.

I hate most local commercials. They are such bad quality and the acting is so bad. I just don't get it. I mean, I know they have a small budget, but come on!

Over here in Scotland, there's a soda drink that you can only buy here, called Irn Bru. Their Ads are always funny, and their latest Christmas one is a hoot.

It's a mock-up of The Snowman movie. You gotta check it out. Here's the link::brent
