Default Denny Hamlin Fed Ex Commercial during F1 Qualifying

This may get punted over to OT, so be it. Apologies if it is
old news.

While watching the rebroadcast of F1 Qualifying last night, I saw
a commercial that NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin did for Fed Ex
which that made me fall out of my chair.

I usually smiled at the past ads from Waltrip, Earnhardt and company.
But Hamlin's current ad really hit home - I woke people up with my
laughter.

I lived that scene (in my mind at least) a long time ago as a kid
taking care of lawns in summer and sidewalks in winter. Still have
the tractor, a Cub Cadet 122. Works great!

I think this link will bring up the Ad in YouTube

Hope someone else gets as much of a kick out of it as I did.

I mostly miss commercials these days because of my DVR. Thanks for sharing.

Great commercial!

I'd get one of those if I had a larger lawn.

For best results, move in beside a neighbor with a tractor, too.

The closing soundtrack of the engine banging against the 'rev limiter'
as Hamlin goes for the pass ... They nailed this whole deal so well !

'scuse me, gotta go mow the lawn.
