Classic Thanksgiving Commercial

Billy Crystal – Robert Di Nero – Rudy Giuliani

November, 2001

*

 

As I understand it this was filmed back in November of 2001 not that long after 9/11. At that time we all needed a uplifted spirit and I think that was the thought behind this adorable commercial.

Funniest Thanksgiving Commercial shot just after the 9/11 attack.

Just take a moment and watch it. Billy is the quintessential Turkey,  DeNiro was the Pilgrim and Rudy Giuliani was the force behind the video invitation.

Billy was the Turkey

Bobby was the Pilgrim

Rudy invites Us in at the end of the video

Is this an Eagle or a Turkey,,,?

*

We all came together back then. Everyone needed a break from all the sadness and it was pieces like this that helped.

All politics aside you have to admit this is comical. I’m going to refer to all of them as kids since this is just a silly bit. Billy is perfect as the turkey, Bobby fits as the pilgrim and Rudy invites us all in.

Again, politics aside I think this is hysterical. I look forward to every Thanksgiving to remind myself about how we all put aside the political hatred and came together as Americans after 9/11.

Hope Everybody in our ELI family has a Happy and Healthy Holiday Season.

Happy Holidays… Have a great Thanksgiving and Holiday Season
