ICYMI VIDEO: New Deflategate Commerical Creates Stir In Patriots Nation
You know the storyline by now, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady’s four game suspension is in full swing as Deflategate officially ended following a dropped appeal on July 16th.
Audio electronics company JBL appears to have missed that memo.
During the NBC Sunday Night Football telecast, this 30 second spot by the company directly parodied the now infamous night between the Patriots and Colts right down to a ball attendant messing with a football. While at first glance a harmless and creative jab, the commercial dug up old wounds and created a firestorm of angry Pats fans over social media.
