Cheetos 2009 Super Bowl Commercial, Annoying Caller

During Super Bowl XLIII, which took place on Feb. 1, 2009 where the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Arizona Cardinals, Cheetos aired a commercial featuring an annoying caller. A woman sits at a table and speaks to her friend on the phone. She is extremely annoying as she speaks to her friend about the ugly people in town. She then tells a story using only the words “like” and “ew.” Another woman sitting nearby is clearly annoyed by the conversation. She looks at Chester Cheetah who agrees with her decision to throw Cheetos under the woman’s chair. A flock of pigeons moves to the woman’s table to eat the Cheetos. The woman is clearly satisfied with her decision.
