A blast from the past! I remember reading about this ad in one of the Apter mags. Also nice seeing those new-fangled home personal computers. It's even IBM-compatible!
I specifically remember "George the Animal Steel" doing a PC/Computer commercial, while dressed in a business suit. Anybody remember it, or better yet, have it?
Ah, the 80s. When everyone's computer room was a sort of soft, limbo-like space … and it was necessary for everyone to be doing something at a computer, somehow, then smile knowingly at the camera.
I love how wrestlers are portrayed as total meatheads a lot of the time, and how Chris sounds so intelligent in this commercial. Definitely a lesson not to judge a book by its cover.
That is not King Kong Bundy. That dude is too young to be Bundy. If you were to see a picture of him and the guy on this commercial they are not the same guy.
look at all the pictures you want to man,Chris Pallies is a friend of mine,thats him!! and not to be insulting to him,but why the hell would head start make a (fake) bundy???through the likeness lawsuit,it would cost them more to hire a fake,then it would to just get chris!! lok at all the pictures you want man thats him..
not only that but bundy was born in 57,that would make him about 30 in this commercail.you dont think that guys around 30? maybe just a tad younger? you serious? lol
1 more thing to put this all to rest..it wont let me copy the link but,google king kong bundy headstart.theres printed ads all over the place with him on it and he's credited!! hmmm so they got the real chris under contract but want to pay a (fake) bundy??? lol
what more fun the vintage computer or the one selling it KKB by the way I heard that he owned his own computer company do not know if this is true or not can you immagine going into a compay to sell something and See him across from you
Did King Kong Bundy lose some weight?

I think Bundy was a better choice to pitch a computer than Hulk Hogan, Andrew the Giant, or Randy Savage.

King Kong Bundy looks so nice here. Well, what do you know. I heard he was real gentle outside of his wrestling persona.

It's King Kong Bundy all right. I agree that he does look a little bit younger (could be the makeup) but it sounds just like him too.
