THE TEAM THAT WOULDN'T BE HERE

The real winners of the Super Bowl are First Responders...

For the second year in a row Verizon ran Super Bowl ads and as far as I'm concerned, they stole the Ad Bowl Games! 

Verizon has been running a spot light ad series previewing a documentary, "The Team That Wouldn't Be Here." For a couple of weeks now, premiering during the NFC and AFC Championship games, the stories of the first responders and the people they have had a hand in saving have been promoting the documentary. 

The story of Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn had the spotlight during the third quarter of the game and it was a tear jerker. 

He thought he was just talking to a group of first responders about his experience. Little did he know three of the first responders that were with him that day were in the group. 

Here's his story if you missed it....

Until February 8th, every time one of these stories is shared on Facebook or Twitter with the hashtag, #AllOurThanks, Verizon will be donating $1 in partnership with the Gary Sinise Foundation...

So share this!

Madison Avenue would tell you this is a failure. There is no humor, there is no stereotyping of husbands or wives, there is no obvious sales pitch. And they would be wrong. It is very refreshing to have a commercial that doesn't blast their product in your face, but actually makes you think and reflect. This is a commercial that reaches out to everybody, and makes you think, "this could have been me in that position."
