Super Bowl: Hertz Commercial with OJ Simpson & Friends - 1984
Upload on YouTube by badnazzz Here is a ad for Hertz I found on a old vhs. It features O.J. and Arnold Palmer with cameos by Dick Butkus and Bubba Smith living large on their Miller Lite "less filling, tastes great" fame. I wanted to doctor the commercial but it is pretty hilarious on its own. O.J. gets a litle irrate. Simpson's amiable persona and natural charisma landed him numerous endorsement deals. He was a spokesman for the Hertz rental car company. He would be depicted running through airports, as if to suggest he was back on the football field.

Weirdo Video Exclusive A preview of Cecil B. DeMille's upcoming film, The King of Kings ... "the picture that will live forever." DeMille hypes his 1927 spectacle, "magnificently portrayed by an inspiring cast of 5000 players," by stressing the epic proportion of these biblical episodes rather than the story itself. Both producer and director of King of Kings, DeMille also was a prolific editor, writer, and actor. With a larger than life persona, he was famous for being famous, often playing himself in other people's movies. You remember his cameo in Billy Wilder's Sunset Blvd ... "Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up."
