Canada's turning 7-Up, the Canadian answer to the America's turning 7-Up campaign of 1979. I wonder if Australia used a campaign as Australia's turning 7-Up?
Ok, who gave me a thumbs down? Everyone knows that Manitoba is the asshole of the universe so why pretend that it matters to anyone. The Jets are dead and that is a blessing. The NHL looked really bush when it had to go to The Peg.
Im sure they all went for the 7up after the games back in those days... lol

I remember it. But I think Canada's national sport should be gymnastics or swimming. I could never get into hockey.

@SnowbirdFlock Hockey is only Canada's official 'winter' sport, and only since 1994.
Lacrosse is actually Canada's National sport.

If I remember, Wayne made an ass of himself by saying he was a root-beer drinker after this commercial.

Really? I remember him winning 5 Cups and shattering every offensive record known to mankind.

@gyruss73 He only won 4, he was traded in 1988 to the Kings and never won a cup after he left Edmonton. The fifth cup was won in 1990.

"An 80ish TV ad"
1980 exactly (the start of the clip shows that it was taped during that year's All-Star Game).

Any organization that has the Jets in it's ads should go belly up. There ain't nothing cool about Manitoba.

I don't know about you, but I'd rather see NHL hockey in Manitoba than in the middle of a freaking desert...

No, I wouldn't. Now that Don Whittman is gone there realy is no reason for the Jets to be resurrected.

Completely 100% agree with you, and have Gretzky as head coah

Good point, bludika. I've seen similar comments on Grant Hill's Sprite commercials from the mid-late 1990s.
