Allstate Mayhem "Skipping" Video

  • Scarlet_Buckeye
    Anyone else see catch this? I was trying to watch the David Griffin / David Blatt from yesterday online, so I found it @ http://www.nba.com/cavaliers/video and normally after 5 seconds on YouTube there's a "Skip" button that lets you skip the commercial and go straight to the video to watch.

    Well... there was a nice "surprise" built into the Allstate commercial.

    At first I was highly annoyed, but then I started seeing the humor in it.

    It seems like SB went to play a video of the Griffin/Blatt press conference from yesterday. Before he could watch the video he had to watch an ad which I am assuming was for Allstate. After 5 seconds a button popped up to skip the ad and go to the video. When SB pressed the skip button it obviously did not go to the video and instead did something that surprised, annoyed, and finally humored him. No word on if SB finally got to watch the video or not.

    There is no commercial when I click that link. I also have AdBlock and don't have to watch commercials.

    That was a good synopsis. Would read again.
