G stands for geeks
The budget must have been huge for this commercial short film but who the heck is it aimed at? In an unscientific survey, I called my brother, who considers himself an athlete and lives with several actual collegiate athletes. I asked him if he’d seen the commercial and he corrected me and said “commercials.” (Apparently the entire thing is broken into 30-second snippets during NBA games.) I then asked him if he’d ever seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail. He hadn’t. I asked him if any of his roommates had seen it. Turns out only one had. I, however, am a big Monty Python fan who can barely point out sports stars — I have no idea who the Jimmy character in the commercial is.
