Most annoying local advertisement

Just for fun, I wanted to see what LOCAL advertisements (TV, Radio, Print, etc...) people were most annoyed by.

My vote is for the old Alaskan Fur commercials, men wearing fur coats just rubs me the wrong way.  They also had a horrible jingle.

My wife absolutely hates the Olathe Kia commercial.  "See ya at Olathe Kia..."  When we're arguing, I sometimes start singing it to really set her off  :D

Come on down to the grass pad. At the grass pad we're high on grraaaaaaaaasss!

Not annoying, just funny that no one said anything in production to stop it.

Their website even says "High on Grass for over 50 years"

Dean Blay - Mr. Remodeler has the most boring commercials on the radio.

I'm still thinking about TV...

Most likely, nothing to apologize for.

It's good stuff either way.

Shane Company drives me up the wall, mostly due to their presence on every single freaking station break.  It's probably ok to cut back on the ad budget a little, guys!  We get it.  You sell diamonds.  She'll love it, or something.

On the radio, the Salty Iguana ads easily, followed by the Gails Harley Davidson with Gail's evil laugh.

The Yella wood commercials are pretty lame for an ad that has high production value.
