FOX had to reject the following ad due to NFL rules about "ad categories". The guy who does commentary afterwards makes some solid points as well.

<object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/GvzAt9Yx7s8?hl=en_US& ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/GvzAt9Yx7s8?hl=en_US&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

This isn't just interesting based on the issues the guy in the video discusses (love the argument about death stats in beer vs guns), but also from a business stand point.

Daniel Defense spent NOTHING to make this ad. No name actors, no effects, no nothing. Just a film crew and some actors at a house. They then submit it, knowing it'll get rejected, and voila, free publicity for minimal cost!
