We may have had a thread about this last year, Im not sure. Although, the Mohita Bacardi Commercial is nice to watch this year, dont you guys/gals remember the old Union 76 commercials. Then there was the Ryno- driving his Chevy truck and Andre Dawsons - Tru Link fence commercial- The Hawk would say- ' when I hit one over the fence at Wrigley field, I hit it over a TRu Link fence". I never understood that since we had a brick wall for a fence. I miss those commercials. There was one about Sportsmart too- I always wanted to go there- of course it would have been a 12 hour drive.


I think we may have talked about these last year too, Im not sure. I was just watching the women dance in the Bacardi commercial and then some crap commercial came on after that. I just remember the days.

Of course, once WGN stoped transmitting its Chicago signal nationwide sometime in the mid 1990s, we don't see any of those local commercials. However, they do show local ads on CSN. Nowadays, you see a lot of Feldco, Bob Rohrman, Lou Malnotti's and Danley's ads on there a lot. The Rohrman and Danley's ads were very prevalent when I started watching Cubs games (as well as Bozo) on the old WGN.
