Shanna (of the Minnesota Tens) alerted me to this Budweiser commercial that only aired in Canada during the Superbowl...and it made me cry like a baby:
Doing what you love generally has to be its own reward. So few of us reap huge fame and money from our passions. How awesome for these guys to get that moment! To everyone heading out this weekend to do what you love simply for the thrill of it, this Bud's for you...

That was one of the most amazing videos I've ever seen! I had chills down my spine and tears running down my face. What a great experience for those guys!
They went all out for a little league game, which was SO sweet! Before that, they did "Best Gig Ever" for a small unknown band. Later, the band said that the experience kinda screwed them up a little.
No, smurfeus, Improv Everywhere had nothing to do with this ad, and it is a TOTAL RIP OFF. I'm glad at least one other person recognizes it! This American Life did a show about "Best Gig Ever," and you can watch "Best Game Ever"
Thanks so much for sharing. I have been to so many rec basketball games, like that one lone fan in the stands, and this film just made my day. I hope they do more just like it.
My husband plays rec league hockey - he thought this video was the best. They had the chance to play in Comcast on the Tips ice and about 20 people came and they were thrilled. I can't imagine 1000's showing up like this. Toooo cooool!!
I've been to a lot of rec hockey games. Me and a small group of friends would be the only fans. We would bring our cow bells and make as much noise as possible. The team loved it! This video is 10 shades of AWESOME!!
