Western Kentucky coach David Elson gives a moving performance as the beleaguered pitch man in this ad for WKU’s six dollar ticket offer for season ticket holders. Please observe not for the moving performance by David Elson, but by the scene-stealing performance by Big Red, WKU’s red, shapeless mascot.
A Moving Performance By WKU’s Big Red

↵I’m all but certain that’s Big Red attempting to grind up on Elson around the minute mark. For fun, imagine this ad cast with Joe Paterno and the Nittany Lion, or even better still, Colorado coach Dan Hawkins and Ralphie the Buffalo.
↵Speaking of that, given the rate at which Colorado is losing games, the crew in an ad like this cast with Dan Hawkins might just let Ralphie stampede him: with an athletic department approaching brokeness and a $3 million buyout, Colorado not only won’t get rid of him, they can’t.
