Shilling for Sherwood

A Garnett, Kansas, restaurant got a little national publicity last night. A commercial for the Sherwood Inn appeared on Late Night With Conan O’Brien. O’Brien was interested because the Sherwood discovered its big star via his show. The commercial features Pierre Bernard, who does this occasional Late Night skit in the video above, as a man who rages at the world from his recliner. Unfortunately, it seems that the Sherwood Inn blew its budget on Bernard. As O’Brien pointed out, the video quality isn’t that great. But, hey, what local commercial is well done? At least this one has a star. Sort of. — Crystal K. Wiebe
