If you watched last night's Monday Night Football for more than a few offensive series, you probably saw all three of these locally produced South Philly pizzeria commercials. All three are amazing and all three raise hilarious potential copyright infringement concerns.
This Uncle Tomy's ad, featuring an amazing Hulk impersonator, is new to television, but has already won serious respect from us. ABSOLUTELY THE BEST PIZZA AROUND, BROTHER!
This ad for Not Just Pizza, or NJP, flips "OPP" in a way you can probably imagine. Our favorite part is the dude in the gorilla suit dancing next to the dude in the banana suit. Also, watch this slightly older NJP ad if you want to see a terrifying demonic CGI penguin who talks like the AFLAC duck. (Just ... watch it.)
This one's been around the longest of the three � Steak 'Em Up's ad reworks a notable tune by a notable band whose name rhymes with "The Smars."
Such a good post! The NJP commercial is hilarious
Every time Steak 'em Up comes on I have to watch my screen to see the mouth on the animation barely move. Why, I don't know... but I do.
Yesssss, I really don't think that there is anything that I love more in this world than local commercials.

I think the new Not Just Pizza ad is trying too hard. The old one, with the penguin (is it a Bud Ice reference?) and the obvious conclusion every person who has ever seen the ad jumps to (Sal is back from prison), was really much better. If you're interested in copyright infringement, though, there's no better local ad than the one for Quattro.
not just pizza. i hope you can create a pizza better than you can come up with a commercial idea, be original ,(for once)please. your commercials are idiotic and not one bit funny. get off steak em ups dic*.
