Beer and hair cuts

O.K.,
So Miller Beer decided to do something different for their Super Bowl ads. They decided to feature 4 classic American small businesses in their ads. Real, hard working Americans with the entrepreneurial spirit. They decide to showcase they kind of business that would NEVER have the $ to buy an ad at the super bowl. Neat idea.

So, what did they pick? What made the cut? What was determined to be a classic example of a classic American small business? Of course, you know... A Barber Shop. That is right... when big corporate America went looking for an example of a classic American business, they went straight to the barber shop. Not a hair salon. Not a chain salon. Not a big fancy day spa. They went to a 50 year old American barber shop filled with real looking barber guys who cut real guys hair.

I love it. The classic American barber shop is here to stay and doing just fine thank you.

I think I will go get my hair cut.
