Arguably one of the greatest television commercials off all time came from Coca-Cola, "The Steeler and the Coca-Cola Kid" featured the now retired Steelers legend Mean Joe Greene and this 9 year old boy and they just create televison magic. In the commerical, Mean Joe is limping off of the field and this kid offers to help. When Mean Joe turns him down, the kid offers him his Coke. Mean Joe takes it, guzzles it down in one move...the Coke theme plays and Mean Joe tosses his jersey to the kid. The commercial ends with the kid saying "Wow! Thanks Mean Joe!" JUST MAGIC!
In fact, the commercial was so good... they made a movie about it! It was called "The Steeler and the Pittsburg Kid" Starring Mean Joe Green and Henry Thomas (of Elliot from ET fame) as "The Kid".
