THE SPOTs
Four :30s—"The Agent," "Agent Phil," "Holdouts" and "Negotiating Table"—continue the adventures of the two tabletop hockey players: Murph and La Rue. In these commercials, the boys, who are blinded by their eagerness for fame and fortune, are duped by their agent, played by Phil Esposito. Bubble Boys "commissioner" Wayne Gretzky appears in two of the ads.
Spots broke in March.
