Maybe its just me, but that was the most effective commercial I've seen in a while, IMHO. It had me glued to the TV in disbelief.

Did you know that they close at 9 PM? On a Saturday? In a two college town? While the Blockbuster next door close to bursting with customers who might like some food to go with their movies?

It might have something to do with financial concerns. Some stores, like Target, close relatively early because the costs of keeping it open for another hour or two a day would be greater than the profit they would make by being open longer. Wal-Mart is open an hour longer than them, or at least that's the case where I live, and I believe that's how they get 75% of their business.

Not to me. Changed the channel or muted the TV everytime they came on. They're flat out ANNOYING.

Quzinos is pretty good, but none can rival the mightiness of Louisiana Poboys with their fried seafood inside dripping with the taste of heart disease.

Yes, I understand common sense economics. It just seems pretty unlikely to me that they can't get enough business after nine on a Saturday evening to stay open. Every single other fast food place in town can. I would think Quizno's could, especially with the prime location. Even with two stores closed, the Quizno's and the cell-phone place, the parking lot was packed.

The best sub I ever had was this pizza sub from a Italian eatery in Knoxville when I went to the UT-UGA game last year. It was like an orgy in my mouth.

Nathan, maybe you know what I'm talking about. The place started with a B.

Also, according to the Moon Song, the "things" are Spongemonkeys, whatever those are. So there you have it.
