Pennsylvania Lottery 12 Days of Christmas Commercial

This Commercial has aired every single Christmas since 1992 in Pennsylvania. It's hilarious, because the guy with Rita says, "What a great gift!"....and it's not. It's not a great gift at all. It's a frakkin' Lottery ticket. It sucks. And that makes it funny.

It's time they retire this one too, just like Gus. Is that "Five Cash Fives" girl Ann Curry from the Today Show?

[Narpin]

@TheCmac0416 No way! I hope they NEVER retire this classic !!

IT HAS BEGUN !!!! Just saw this commercial tonight on Jeopardy on WPVI 6 ABC -- 1/11/11, the day after Halloween. Not even Thanksgiving yet, and Joe is already giving Rita that lotto ticket.

Year 19 of the classic 'Snowflake' ad is now upon us!

whoever posted this. you are the best man to ever lived..i could never find this on here. and i thank you ^ ^

[Narpin]

@voltron5 You are far too kind.

I had to upload it. A few years ago I was living in Phoenix and telling all my native Arizona friends about this commercial and it wasn't on Youtube, so I couldn't show them. As soon as I moved back to PA I knew I had to capture this classic and get it on Youtube.

It's a PA classic, true...you know its Xmas when this commercial comes on. But I see the "Gus the Groundhog" ads more than this one..shame.

Personally, I am pretty happy to these are over and done with, until November. Especially the Christmas car ads (Cadillac, Hyundai, Kia, Toyota, etc) ..those should end by tonight thank God!

[Narpin]

@scrapplecheesesteak I'm going to miss the Christmas Hyundai commercials. That girl who sings the Christmas songs is mighty pretty. I'd take her and a side of cheese fries anyday!!

[ScrappleCheesesteaks]

@Narpin I liked her too actually, it was the 30something year old white rappers driving in a mall parking lot that drove me insane.

[ScrappleCheesesteaks]

See ya "Gus" He got the pink slip from the PA Lottery today (no more TV, just print ads)

- You know the economy is crap when a puppet gets fired.

I always look forward to seeing Rita and Jim every year. :)

@dxrocks06

I've wondered the same thing, in fact, I half wonder if any of them are still alive...

[Muldo]

I've been looking for this on youtube for years. FINALLY.

[Broncort1]

I wonder if "Joe" is even still alive....and the Asian girl probably laughs whenever she sees this

I was born in 1992 and I've been seeing this commercial my entire life. I hope that they never stop playing it as long as I live haha.
