The New Orleans Pelicans opened the season with one of the more surreal team-made videos you'll ever see. This is surreal-er:
Anthony Davis stars as ‘The Special Man’ in weird throwback Pelicans ad
As UPROXX points out, this is a take-off of an old series of furniture commercials, with Anthony Davis playing the role of the grumpy old "Special Man," Tyreke Evans playing the "WITH NOOOOO PROBLEM" person, and Ryan Anderson emceeing the whole thing with a gray wig and wiggly limbs. The lady buying the tickets is a gem, too.
The Dallas Mavericks used to have the market for weird videos cornered, and the Minnesota Timberwolves have had their moments, but the Pelicans may have just pulled into the lead. (Also that ticket deal is absurdly cheap and I wish I lived in New Orleans.)
