    Re: Cy's Locker Room Ad

    Thanks for your responses. I've composed an email and sent it off to the athletics department. I'll start there and at some point shift over to the Iowa State University Book Store (UBS) to continue the discussion.

    Re: Cy's Locker Room Ad

    I always thought it'd be funny to have some students reenact the ad as it was playing.

    But yeah, move the ad to halftime at least. It's kind of amusing, but as we get to the more critical games, it's a momentum killer.

    Re: Cy's Locker Room Ad

    The funny thing is the ad makes me not want to buy anything from there.

    I am not the most handsome guy in the world but the people in the ad are not even good to look at. Now if you had some true models that were hot, we could all "suffer" through it.

    Same here. I'm the type of person that if I find a commercial on TV overly annoying or unbearable, I will go out of my way to not buy the product. Example #1: The Wendy's hot juicy burger commercials.

    Re: Cy's Locker Room Ad

    The ad is terrible. It hurts my ears, especially the mother and son bit, and the end with the entire group. Those kids yell with ear piercing pain. NOTHING about the ad is CUTE. The first time I saw it, I hated it. The second time I saw it, I told my wife that this thing is going to get really old. The third time I saw it, I sighed and cringed. The fourth time I saw it, I got angry. The next time I see it, I will probably jump out of the stands and hurt some random kid just because they remind me of the ad.

    I HATE IT. I'M SO ANGRY NOW. WHY DID YOU HAVE TO REMIND ME OF THIS AD? AHHHHHH! STUPID CY BOOK. STUPID CONE THINGY. STUPID KID WHO IS NOT CUTE. IT'S LIKE A BURNING RAGE OF ANGER BUILDING IN MY BELLY!

    While you're at it, do you mind sending off an email to Hy-Vee about their insipid Cy-Hawk ad. My god, they've been playing this same stupid ad for 3 years now!? I'm so sick of it.

    Re: Cy's Locker Room Ad

    I'm sure anyone with little kids are probably saying "thanks a lot, now my kids are wanting me to go buy some overpriced stuff they just saw."

    Play that at halftime and please change it so we don't have to see the same one all the time! Maybe even just show people in the crowd wearing licensed merchandise?

    I could have made a better commercial and I have not commercial making background! Who the F put it together and who approved it to be shown at all games? Crazy!
    Just in case you didn't know... I'm a girl.

    Re: Cy's Locker Room Ad

    Holy worst ad in the history of advertising... It needs to be changed and played either before the game, or during halftime. It just kills during a timeout.

    We Loooove CCCCCYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyyyyyyy!!!

    Haha, the lady that is saying that with the kid knows how dumb it is... you can tell by the expression on her face. She's thinking "oh my god this is the worst commercial ever, everyone is laughing at me!"

    I think you have anger management issues.

    I don't think you're the only one, either.

    Yes, we understand the ad is not that great and not suitable for basketball games. It makes you angry??
