TFN.....They were given bad advice by Adsouth IMO, and decided to do a Super Bowl commercial..Even worse, they decided to hold a lottery among customers, and award 3 winners starring roles in the commercial. But their website was buggy, they lacked inventory and cash, and wanted to drop the commercial. But they had held the contest, and were legally obliged to produce and air a Super Bowl commercial. Luckily, they weren't obliged to show it nationally, and were able to sell their spot back to Fox. They made that low-rent commercial to cover their asses, and skulked away quietly, licking their wounds. That bad marketing advice lost them boatloads of credibility IMO. A sorry chapter in the ancient, but painful past of GZFX, to be sure!
