Satans Hockey Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 queue Final Destination Music. Maybe he hit his head if the plane landed hard, kinda like the same situation with the girl who got hit with the puck and died a few years ago, she appeared to be fine at the time as well.

LaCava83 Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 too soon to make the joke that the shamwow guy was to blame??? --- Billy stepped on a full shamwow after his morning shower and it sucked all the liquid out of him - should have cut it in half like Vince does on his commercial...

Colin226 Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Billy redefined the 30 second product pitch.. From a marketing standpoint he was excellent in the way he was loud and always moving to entice customers.. Can't say I'll miss his commercials though as his Jedi mind tricks didn't work on me Now Vince, the Sham-Wow/Slap Chop guy, is the new king of the 30 second pitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
