"Mean" Joe Greene

I posted an earlier classic Coca-Cola commercial...the so-called "Hilltop" advertisement where youth from around the world sing the catchy song "I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke."  I thought I would share another big gun Coca Cola commercial.  This one aired during the 1979 football season and made an appearance in the 1980 Super Bowl.  Here, defensive tackle of the Pittsburgh Steelers "Mean" Joe Greene" hobbles to the locker room while being approached by a young fan.  Joe is at first dismissive of the boy until the boy offers him his Coke.  Joe accepts, chugs the bottle with an incredible tolerance for the product's carbonation, and with new found peace, kindly tosses the boy his battered jersey.  A heart warmer every time.
