Ameriquest Mortgage Super Bowl commercial (stopping a robbery)

ameriquest ad

This one was great. A guy is talking on his cellphone using an earpiece and says things like, "Did you hear me? You're getting robbed." while walking up to the counter of Bob's Market. The guy behind the counter sprays him with pepper spray and hits him with a bat. A woman zaps him in the back with a tazer.

The point is that you should make quick judgements about people. Ameriquest doesn't. It's one of those laugh out loud commercials where you can recall the details of the attack and how funny it was, but you aren't really sure if it was a commercial for car insurance, potato chips, beer or pepper spray...
