    That's so cool. Me-TV site has a picture of the 2 of them together as a "Cute Kids from 70s commercials" piece. Back then there was also a song by Michael Henderson called "Wide Receiver" and in part of it he does a 2 line pardody of the famous Coke ad:
    "Thanks Mean Joe!"
    "Go away kid, and take that smelly T-shirt with you."

    Great classic, even if you don't like football!
    "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
    'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
    Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
    If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

      That is too cool! It would be neat to see the kid grown up wearing the same jersey Greene threw to him as a kid.

        I have a white Joe Green jersey and I'm not even a Steelers fan, just because of that commercial.

          Wow, that's cool. That commercial was omnipresent in our collective childhood.

              You can tell it's one of the greatest, most well known commercials from the amount of times it's been parodied. Here's a few, my favorite is House.
