Does anyone remember? (90s trivia...)

boilermaker · 11-28-2005, 10:33 PM

I remember vaguely a series of commercials in the early/mid 1990s during NFL games on Sunday that offered "players of the week" from the previous week....and every single time, Houston Oilers' kicker Al Del Greco was number one. In fact, he was portrayed as "the greatest football player alive" or something like that.

Does anyone remember what the commercial was for? I mean, who was behind the advertisement?

And does anyone actually remember that at all?

I don't know the answer, but I remember the commercials. Also, this thread reminds me of Goatboy.

Wow I remember those commercials too but like you, I do not remember the advertiser! Wish I could help!

I remember them well, although I don't remember the advertiser

For some reason, I'm thinking coors?
