Turbo Tax Commerical
« on: January 29, 2017, 23:36:06 »
Has anyone in the US seen the Turbo Tax tv commerical with what appears to me be a very brief shot of a Pagoda?  If it is a Pagoda, does it belong to anyone in this group?

Alex,

Is it the commercial with the tennis player? There is a 111 coupe at the start that has a tennis ball embedded in the windshield.

Yes, it was the commercial with the tennis player.  How can you tell it was a 111 coupe?  It showed the car for only 2-3 seconds, and was far back in the shoot.

Thats no tennis player its a well know retired power hitter from american baseball, David Ortiz, known for smacking the baseball-hard- hence the joke
