Ryan Reynolds' Mint Mobile Pokes Fun at 'Big Wireless' for Sports Stadiums

The budget carrier is giving away free service (again)

Mint Mobile might not have a big sports stadium in its name, but according to the budget mobile carrier’s new spot, that’s a good thing for customers.

The ad, voiced by Mint’s eccentric owner and actor Ryan Reynolds, notes that the price tag on those stadiums—of which all the major carriers have at least one—must trickle down to consumers. And why would any mobile subscriber want to be paying for a sign on a stadium?

“We wanted to address the gorilla in the room,” said Reynolds.
