Since BoingBoing is running a series on bad local TV ads, I thought I'd chip in one of my favorites. If you're watching TV late at night in the Baltimore and Washington local markets, nothing can beat the atonal drone of local sports stars singing along with the Eastern Motors theme song:
Sadly, YouTube lacks those old Shoe City ads in which no shoes were shown, perhaps to make room for the endless parade of badly-lit badonkadonk.
But that's just college-age nostalgia. Not too long ago, I took it really old school with Crazy Eddie's.
