[AIIiecat]

Drew, you need to film a remake of this one staring you and Rosie! haha! xoxo

[bossr07]

anyone remember that the old irish spring in this commercial smelled a lot better then the soap today...I miss the old soap...

[indyfan22k]

Las Vegas , why there ? Was it to gamble @ Fitzgerald's Casino ?

How come I NEVER see Irish springs ads on tv now ?

Imagine how damn cold it would be to bath in an actual Irish Spring ?? Brrrr

when i was 10 i wanted to go to irerlend so bad because i loved the smell of irish spring soap and he said it smells like a fresh irish spring so for my birthday we went in spring and it did not smel like the soap so iu wouldent talk for the rest of the trip.

Lamest thing about this ad is the thunder at the end when it rains; if you know Ireland, you almost never hear thunder like that and the rain falls soft like a mist

@malevich2007 Indeed! People have some rather, shall we say, preconceived notions about every place in the world they've never been. For some reason, people in Europe routinely made comments like "it must get cold way up there in Seattle", as if it were in Alaska or Siberia. I'd always give them a very short geography lesson: "actually, if you drew a line around the world, Seattle would lie about 150 km SOUTH of Paris."

[NoIDidunt10]

Looking back,this had to be one of the campiest commercials ever

[dmc081]

the irish spring with aloe smells like cat piss i stop buying it because of that leaves your skin not really a good smell

[xxashyy]

[SonLastName]

[Miszpinktuxedox3]

my favorite soap LOL!!!

[ikarooniix3]

"enter the Irish spring contest..... win a trip to Vegas.." lmaooo i thought he would say Ireland loll

[2000hpeds]

Sounds like Letterman's Late Show announcer Alan Kalter in the Las Vegas tag at the end. Kalter is probably more Irish than the two actors in the ad put together! LOL

[BillyMacQ]

Does everyone in Ireland shower outdoors?

[rockhopper10r]

If I were Irish I think I'd be offended. LOL

[squiggly9]

I like how they're talking about Ireland the whole time, but they offer a trip to Las Vegas in the end

[jj77tt66]

1980??? I remember that like it was yesterday!  Freaky...

[poohgp]

Is that Gary Swanson?

[justme632]

He had small parts in alot of movies like Drew Barrymoore's Firestarter and at the beginning of Michael J Fox movie Secret of My Success

[LeadingAlI]

he's your uncle?...he's my dad, who is this?

[edthewise]

yeah wash your stinkin irish ass with that bar me laddie!

[OofusTwillip]

The Newfoundland accent sounds a lot like the Irish one, so that's probably where the Irish in Canada first settled.

Irish people in Canada? Scottish come from Nova Scotia, French come from Quebec!
