Curling Commercials on TV

What is your favourite all time TV Curling Commercial? Some of today's commercial are so boring. My favourite all time is the Tim Horton commercial with Shorty Jenkins!

It's gotta be the classic Strauss Herb Company ads.

Was that the one with Ferbey and his raccoon eyes/tan?

Sadly I wasn't asked to be in it (what insecure early teen with braces wouldn't want the other kids in junior high to see this? ; ), but two of my teammates are in it. The guy opening the commercial is Matt Dunstone's dad Dean who, surprisingly, never won a provincial junior.

Also, mullets never go out of style. (In Winnipeg)

I agree commercials are needed but please enough of the WFG ones of Jennifer and family and the new baby. We all know it's delightful to fulfill our dreams but time to move on
Mute time for that one

More like flip the channel time! Sadly it will be played nonstop until the end of curling season.

The only one who likes it is Manitoba Legend

I also find it strange that Brent doesn't acknowledge his son as part of the family,

My favourite commercial on curling. Hmmmm. I don't think I have one. However, the one I really hate and have to mute is the family with the woman yelling at her husband to hurry hard, when opening a jar. Insulting. The husband on the scales, the kids on the sofa. IMO

Yep, Edge of My Seat City! Gets me every time! lol

Especially like Brent looking at JJ for permission to speak!

And as someone else no mention of his son! I hope the volunteer committee in St. Catharines is prepared for JJ should she make it.
