Barrel O' Fun 'Signs of the Game'

“Predictable” is generally a term of scorn when applied to any creative effort, whether a novel or a commercial. But that can be a misreading of how the audience reacts. This spot for Barrel O’ Fun snacks, via Minneapolis agency GdB, illustrates the point. When we see Minnesota Twins manager Ron Gardenhire running through some of the signs he’d use to signal a play (including, here, a hit-and-run and a squeeze bunt), we know something goofy will ensue.
