HOLY F*CKING CRAP! My Dad helped make that commercial! No lie! Travelers decided to script the commercials themselves (the higher-up people) and only let another company tweak and film it. I honestly didn't think they would be that good when he told me. My Dad didn't come up with this specific commercial, although he was in the meeting. He suggested the boxing one. I'll try to find it on YouTube.
The original Japanese commercial for Katamari Damacy was much more clever and more succinct: <a class="user" href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=79w8yQTH5b0">http://youtube.com/watch?v=79w8yQTH5b0</a>My wife and I saw that insurance commercial last night and were not impressed. It's too long and very obvious that they are trying to appear "hip". Wow, you ripped off Katamari Damacy, great job asshats.
Why am I being dugg down? I'm not lying! I asked my Dad when he got back from work today and he saw the comments on YouTube. He said he didn't know that there was a game like this and he would ask his coworker tomorrow about it.
I saw this last night, and was shocked at the very end when it wasn't a commercial for Katamari Damacy. I would be very surprised if this commercial didn't get it's inspiration from the game...

Here's the one my Dad made. I wish I he told me that he could make a commercial. I would have put up a poll on Digg or something.<a class="user" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RQo6dj_lb8">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RQo6dj_lb8</a>
