[vijanatrix]

how much does sampras look like vincent chase

[phantomlord54]

Sure do miss those times...that ad captured the glory days of American men's tennis

[YouMuseMe]

Filmed in San Francisco I think. Bus has "Market" in its display. I used to live in the Bay Area.

[quest8899]

Thats a funky outfit Agassi is wearing.

[tsthunt]

No joke. What's that about? :-) I can't believe how old this commercial is. Best tennis commercial ever.

[Hexelsfayt]

Ah You guys are not focusing on the real thing here. What you saw Nedal and Roddick do something like this? DAmN I love tennis and if i saw something like that id run home and get MY racket and play! :D

[F1JogaBonito]

exact same race, different countries

[F1JogaBonito]

armenians are just christian iranians

[DGeorgeff]

The clip is called "Guerilla Tennis" directed by Spike Jonze. The song is called "Who Is Next" by Wax. I think it was shot in SF. - I love it!

[jcc2150]

man, andre was kinda chubby back then :P they both ROCK!

[dlbarch]

This is NOT New York City. It's San Francisco, on Sansome Street near the old Pacific Stock Exchange Building.

Nice try, though.

[leeknows1]

Yeah. And that's a Muni bus at the end.

Wow, I remember this commercial and if you guys are a fan of Andre you guys probably know me

[robertk2007]

agassi is american. his dad is iranian

[EricMCross]

His dad is Armenian.

[robertk2007]

Agassi was born in Las Vegas, Nevada to Emmanuel "Mike" Aghassian and Elizabeth "Betty" Agassi (maiden name Dudley).[3] His father is an Iranian of Armenian and Assyrian ancestry,[4][5] and represented Iran in boxing at the 1948 and 1952 Olympic Games before emigrating to the United States. He was intent on having a child win all four tennis

[EricMCross]

I just got wikified.

[noteeth17]

lol

[adamsworld]

andre aggasi is originally iranian. how many americans know that!

[someoneelsenothere]

I thought Agassi was born in America because his parents moved here.

[niketennis1]

i did, and did u know his dad was a boxer for the olympics

[niketennis1]

very well done, Andre Agassi and sampras lethal combo for a commercial, a baseline game and an all rounder.

[someoneelsenothere]

Sampras wasnt really an all court player, just serve and volley

[niketennis1]

i think he had everything, but anyways I thought he had an all round because he also plays baseline

[cxyian]

sampras was an all court player. If he never serve and volley he can be a top baseline player too.

[wugaocuoya]

........

[zyxfbaa]

isn't that racket andre has his first HEAD racket? Cause I have 2 of those i really like how they hit.

[joesakic91]

Actually, the commercial was in San Francisco, not NYC.

[flipwarrior]

I would rather watch baseline rallies than 1-2 point serve and volley. It's much more entertaining to see players construct points and battle it out on the baseline and try and end the points by transitioning to the net.

[jonnwins]

Lmao. "Boring baseline rallies" was exactly the complaint BEFORE Andre and Pete created "Boring Serve and Volley power games". Watch Federer and be entertained!

[cxyian]

agassi serves and volleys?? hmmm...

[someoneelsenothere]

every tennis player has served and volleyed before, but as Sampras said, Agassi's volleys arent that great.

[cxyian]

of course every tennis player has served and volleyed before.. What i refer to is those who served and volleyed in almost every of his serve. Just like McEnroe, Pete, Rafter and Ivanisevic.

[brianmurphy1969]

I already miss Andre, and Pete is not forgotten....

No more great contrasting rivalries in tennis.

Boring baseline rallies....

[sleepytimeB]

In case anyone was wondering the song is "Who is next" by WAX

[niketennis1]

oh good pt, that same high view of the ppl is also done in Maria Sharapova's canon commercial where all the balls r following her.
