Brett Favre Commemorative Packers Coin
The Brett Favre Coin. I Kid You Not.


I'm not sure what the best thing is about this ad. That I can get a completely worthless coin for only $9.95 as opposed to $29.95, or that I can potentially get 8 of them, or that it's officially licensed by, um, I'm not sure who exactly, or that after every time one of Brett Favre's career highlights is rolled off, some guy yells "FAVRE!" in the background. 

Apparently this commercial is running in, uh, I'm guessing Wisconsin, because no one else in the world would ever buy this worthless hunk of scrap. 

I just hope that someone eventually tries to buy something with this coin, then gets beaten for their stupidity...multiple times.

Maybe Brett should buy one so that when he is deciding again whether or not to retire or play again..  He can just flip a coin with his own face on it.

Seriously though... would ANYONE buy this right now?

No one outside of Wisconsin would pay that much for it...
Packers fans probably aren't exactly in the mood to buy Brett Favre paraphernalia...
And Jets fans aren't going to buy a coin featuring Brett in a Packers uniform.

Could they possibly have timed this any worse?

ChicaQueso would comment in this thread, but she's too busy trying to find a way to get around the "Limit of 5 Per Customer" restriction.

I saw this on TV here in NJ lol.

But even if I was a die hard Packers or Brett Favre fan there is no way I'm buying this.  The Packers logo is not even on the helmet! I guess the Packers told this company, "Hell no. We will not be a part of this in anyway what so ever lol."

Excellent point... I didn't even notice that at first. The way I see it, anything that can't even get the NFL licensing to put the logo on it... just isn't worth a damn thing.

And then he will spend them at the local grocery store to buy a year's supply of turducken.
