  • hahah ya! my buddy didnt get it until the end...

  • crewchiefs get it

  • I want to go to Honolulu now.

  • lol

  • don't think too many people are going to 'get' this commercial till the end

  • Hehe, my dad's a professional roadie.

  • he he buckle up dudes

  • Love this one.

    "Lights, Stage.....Lets rock WOOOOOHOOOOO"

  • Is it me or does the pilot kind of look like Chuck Norris?

  • haha nice :P I hadn't seen this one.

  • I'm a roadie(sound engineer) and I love this video. Things would be more efficient if we ran the world.

  • there would be less idiots thats for sure

  • The idiots would get a plane ticket home before the end of the day. In the words of Gene Simmons.."Aisle or Window?"

  • amen to that brother

  • WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!

    LOL

  • lol. thats hularious!

  • this in here and where outta here hahahaha grand

  • If roadies ran the world? At least the shit that NEEDS to get done would get done, and it would be done well and on time. I'll vote for that!

  • yeah thats true you get it

  • I was a roadie for 10 years... this is as true as it gets.. man, makes me miss my pals.

    Tarzan, Caveman, Tex, Trosky, Toto... oh man, the good old days.

  • wats a roadie's job? never heard of that

  • Pretty much the guys that work the stage, usually for rock bands, that travel along.v Crew for lights, sound, and set-up in general.

  • hey how did you get to be a roadie

  • Wakazoid...Do you have any skills that you could use as a roadie? If Not, you need to find a skill....Sound, Lighting, truck driver, backline tech.

  • This one and the firefighters as politicians are my favorites.

    I love these because they show underrated people using their particular personality traits or set of skills to simplify things that are more complicated than they need to be, and doing them better.

    They oughta do one with pizza delivery guys running the DMV, or one with garbage men acting as building inspectors. Or maybe something with grocery cart wranglers.

  • I love this commercial

  • GREAT!

  • lol this in here and were out of here

  • sweet!!!

  • Hahahahah sick

  • "Buckle up dudes!" lol

  • .. So what if the roadies commanded "Air Force One"!!!

    jejejejejej

  • Damnit.

    I thought I was the only one who even knew what roadies were.

    Anyway, roadies = love of my life.

  • lol people its a cCOMMERCIAL LOL

    I persionally have a 120 iq we all got together and descussed the persional feelings of roadies around the world and decided to all wash our cloths.lol  and you guys all know that roadies always dress in levis and tee shirts were actors. lol get over your self its entertainment.

  • real shows are called by position and cue number... as in "standby pyro cue 30........go cue 30" and do we really look like a burned-out-biker-turned-homele­ss-crackhead??? A touring department head can make $6k a week. I can afford clean cloths

    as always a great spot. i think we dident get a good shake on the voting we were on like the last page. is the voting over for the best ad?

  • hay im Frankie Ray the guy at the counter glad you all like the spot funny i have a Dj company and a full band in my house and was setting up gear for the show after the superbowl and well im dressed in a tank top and tee shirt looking like and doing what a roadie does setting up music gear pa's lights ext and bam the spot hit and well the sports bar was packed about 300 people and they all stopped looked at me and this huge uproar hit like a touchdown "cool" i felt great thanks again Frankie

  • Nice commercial. *beep* " Let's rock"

  • That's a great commercial.

  • search THE EDDINGTON LIMIT

  • Well Obama hasn't fucked everything up yet. Stop being so goddamn negative, you're making us Americans look bad, and you're also being worse than the person you pretend Obama is by never giving him a chance.

    ...ignorant assholes...

  • He's done more in these few days for the people than Bush EVER did. Sure surprised the hell out of me.

  • better than mr. quota obama. that asshole is gonna fuck everything up.

  • wont be ever as bad as bush running the world

  • LOL I love this commercial.

  • My name is Alex Moore, I'm the big roadie..the "Buckle up dudes" guy. We filmed this at the Ontario airport.

  • haha you're ugly

  • hahahahaha lol your so funny.. well i am the guy fucking your mom.. and unlike your comment i am not joking

  • Anyone pretty sure that was SFO where this was filmed?

  • LOVE IT! I used to use Nextel's Direct Connect working on the ramp at the airport! flawless!

  • "Get work done now with Nextel Direct Connect from Sprint. Only on the Now Network. " xD LMAO!!

  • "It's damn easy to run an airline"

  • lol

  • Things would be a LOT faster :)

  • When the plane left I laughed so hard:p they should make more of the roadies commercials, it's a damn good angle:P (maybe there are more i don''t know i'm not from around!)

  • this is the way it should be. same with the firefighters and delivery guys.

  • i love the part where the plane lifts off, that would be so cool if that happened to every plane lift off i wish i was on that plane lol

  • I thought I saw this before and if so why air it during the superbowl?

  • Fuck yeah!!!

  • i laughed when the airplane lifted :P

  • thats funny

  • This, in here, and we're outta here.  Buckle up dudes! LOL

  • Oh! If only Sprint was any good!

  • Ok, so the plane taking off made me laugh.

  • What's a roadie?

  • They travel with the bands and set up the concerts.

  • Tune up the instruments, pick up the girls, drive, lif, buy drugs...they saved rock and roll!

  • ooooo ok i get it now

  • This was not as good as the Delivery guys but still good

  • Finally! The roadies get some love! :)

    Thumbs up.

  • yes. roadies get shit done!

  • Good idea makes you think =P

  • dude shut up no you didn't you just want us to see your fake UFO videos and by the way, they're not really convincing, you should delete them

  • kill yourself

  • what r roadies?

  • they are specialists who do anything physical for touring rock bands. they set up sound, settings, carry stuff, drive, set up stage effects, and can really do anything that a preforming band needs assembled or done.

  • people that for a living step up stages for bands

  • ...who tour with the shows they run. A local crew stagehand is a technician delegated to build and operate those shows BY the roadies...basically, a non-specialized roadie who doesn't leave a town/venue/region. Not that you asked, I just wanted to clarify LethargicTurtle's answer up there. ---IATSE #66

  • oh yeah.

  • World Flight Attendant Begins With Me Tomorrow Now Again For Me.

  • yes

    simply yes

  • This is how airports should be.

  • ...it would be a better world

  • hmm, roadies running the world.... sounds cool

  • I'm already tired of these walkie talkie commercials. What is it? Nextel? Yeah, I'm over them.

  • RANDOM!

  • Comment removed

  • nice

  • Lol now thats funny!

  • i just had my 3D glasses on for the sobe commercial and now my eyes are all fucked up lol

  • how do i vote?!?!?!?

  • My fellow stagehands and I think this commercial is the greatest... a few friends from my local watched it first in a bar right after a long out for a huge gig. You give one another a look like, hey, that's OUR world! In a nationally televised commercial!

  • wow, you must be proud of yourself.

  • Super bowl commercials used from last year, super bowl commercials used way after the superbowl, and commercials that were used before the superbowl.

    Three things that annoy me as I'm pretty sure you or me could be more creative. I mean people in your world must be creative.

  • the other "what if's" were funnier

  • ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq oʇ ƃuıoƃ ɯɐ ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ

  • LOL!!!

  • I love this add but I saw it a few weeks ago!

  • LMAO!!! "Let's Rock!" *launch* This is awesome! It would be so cool if it happened for real.

  • No, it really wouldn't. The commercial is funny because it introduces a silly proposition. A well scripted, acted and edited one, but not something to be taken seriously.

  • Naaww...I didn't take it serious...Relaxed.....juz for fun dude!!!

    I'm not idiot that can't figure it out between the entertainment and the fact....lol Thx for comment.

  • Makes my heart sing.

  • This has been on TV for weeks...maybe even a month..

  • i bet these guys wouldn't lose my luggage.

  • that would be true

  • no but we would take your weed out

  • that would be great

  • "This, in here, and were outa here", "Buckle up dudes" Gotta love it. My fav part.

  • this has been on tv for months

  • One of the only decent ads of the superbowl. Props, Sprint.

  • stuff would get done faster

  • "Buckle up DUDES!" lol hilarious

  • if this commercial ever happened for real that would just be totally awesome

  • Totally awesome! It would be the best if this happened in real life! Love the ad!

  • Best ad of the Superbowl. Real life should be like this.

  • This absolutely RAWKED!! I luvvved it!!

  • things would be so much better. I'm in a small garage band and we have some personal friends of ours who help us carry our shit around. their real names are Jake and Noah but they prefer us to refer them by their roadie names when they help us (Tank and Smokestack respectfully.)

  • Yeaaaah, babyyyy -- Superbowl airtime!!!!

  • Awesome Commercial

  • lol!

  • Let's Rock! They need to run this one more and more! :)

  • hell yea, i love this commercial!

  • Now that's how you run an airline!!

  • Can you guys do a "job" for me?.. Lol!

  • yes darling Roadies aim to plrease

  • OOOuu, GOODIE! I LIKE that! Thank you!

  • I love the flight attendent...he`s my favorite!

  • love this commercial!! should run it more on tv! very cool!!

  • As if roadies need to communicate that much :-) We know the job!

  • Well, if roadies ran the airlines, flights wouldn't have 3 hour delays!

  • Roadie for president

  • i wanna be a roadie now

  • love this commercial!!!!!

  • The whole commercial rocks, but my favorite character is the pilot. I love that light he gets in his eyes at 00:19 that just says "It's on!!!"

  • I hate commercials ... but I LOVE this. I laughed out loud - several times!

  • Damn. Maybe roadies really should run the world (or at least part of it). Their job does involve a lot of precision and effeciency anyways.

  • ahhhhhhhhh

    whats a Tripper?

    ahh fug it

    lets just get the show on the Road boys

    whats a funny tripper.

    like do roadies take acid?

    Fall down allot

    frequent vacations.

    ok therapy is in order

  • lol i dont get it =O

  • I want to work at this airport!!!

  • ha that totally combined one of friends and my lifestyle. its so perfect. the term roadie sucks but the commercial is a compliment saying we get stuff done. i dig it.

  • This is one of my favorite commercials of all time!

  • I worked on this commercial. Funny thing was that the head roadie on the mic was a tripper for sure, but ended up being really funny in the end. Night shoots blow, but what the hell, its a living.

  • nice ,awesome video .... nice ,awesome video ....

  • what if roadies ran the world? it would be a much better place. i liked "this in here, and we're good" instead of taking 4-5 minutes to explain how to put on a safety belt

  • I like. Lets go! *gaff tape noises*

  • Can I ask you where you found the original video? I would like a high-quality version to put on a dvd!

    Thanks in advance...

  • Anybody notice that the name of the airline is HEADWAYS

  • Best damn commercial on tv right now. Makes my day when this one comes on.

    "Buckle up dudes"

  • AWESOME!!!

  • Weird, I was commenting on other comments, and they all wound up at the front of the line! If roadies ran YouTube this wouldn't happen!

  • This is absolutely the BEST commercial on TV right now... I laugh out loud every time it comes on... "Let's rock..."

  • LisSa...and no, it's just one my favorite quotes among the thousands of stickers and junk I've come accross stuck to peoples' workboxes.

    p.s. I'm a local =)

  • This is the best commercial on tv right now.

    Only thing this commercial lacks is the cigarette smell that most roadies give off

  • this, in here, we're outta here

  • "Listen to the stage manager and get on stage when they tell you to, no one has time for your rockstar bullshit. None of the techs backstage care if you're David Bowie or the milkman. When you act like a jerk, they're completely unimpressed with the infantile display you might think comes with your dubious status. They were there hours before you building the stage, and they'll be there hours after you tearing it down. They should get your salary and you should get theirs" Henry Rollins

  • lisa ??? Girl sounds like you dated a rock star? but your correct.

    frankie ray your guy at the counter

  • Sad part is, we tried something like this out once at KCI, and it worked.

    Wonder if.

  • Check one two sybalince....huh huh huh

  • Buckle up dudes!

  • Show blacks would be the ultimate pilot's uniform!

  • Love the pyrotechnics on the runway

  • The Tarmac Taskforce could take a few ideas from these dudes.

  • I think every airline could learn something from this ad. Nextel scored huge with this and the Firefighter's commercials. Great job!

  • i love this commercial! I'd almost get a Sprint phone because of it.

  • bout time!!!
