Zach Borst, a 26-year-old aspiring filmmaker from Floral Park, N.Y., has won Chevrolet's contest to have a consumer create one of its Super Bowl spots for the Feb. 5 game. The ad, posted below, features a high-school kid who mistakenly thinks his parents got him Camaro for graduation—rather than the actual gift of a college-dorm mini-fridge. Borst wins $25,000 and will see his commercial, which is somewhat irritating but not horrible (the 60-second version is horrible), air Feb.
