and you bookies/marketers wonder why no one will take you serious....

cj99,

This version is for the internet only. There is a clean version that will be used for the actual commercial.

Thats great there is a clean version. Problem is when they see this commercial they will go to the site and you will be down LOL..... You guys need to be spending your money on staying online rather than promoting something that has a uptime of 15%

BeverlyHillsBookie · Jan 29, 2004

Oh really... We would rather spend 10 million promoting the site then having it up.

That obviously was Scotts response.

Seriously,

We are working on getting the site back up ASAP. Sorry for the inconvenience.

You're going on TV huh, is'nt the magazines and online good enough??

With a ticklish situation with this gaming stuff why put yourself more in the lime light?,

You're like a drug dealer giving out business cards with your home address

I agree, why can any other sportsbook get their site working except you guys. Why even bother no one on this site plays there.

Soothsayer · Jan 29, 2004

What network, what channel will these ads run on BHB?

Also, is that your PR guy... the kid in the ad?

G.MONEY · Jan 29, 2004

PETE,

YOUR WEB SITE IS DOWN, AND YOU GUYS COME IN HERE AND PROMOTE. WHY NOT STAY AWAY, GIVE US A UPDATE RATHER THAN THROW GAS ON THE FIRE. IT SEEMS EVERY TIME YOU GUYS ARE DOWN, WHICH IS MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE BY THE WAY. YOU GUYS LIKE TO ADD MORE FUEL TO THE FIRE. I JUST DO NOT GET IT.........

sponge · Jan 29, 2004

It is official, you guys are the biggest JOKE on the net. I said it here many times.....you guys are the biggest jokes out there and now you made it official.

Do everyone a favor in this industry....please dont run this ad.....yo make the whole industry look stupid!

Tico · Jan 29, 2004

What exactly IS the message? Anyone care to enlighten me?

I think the ending is "decent"... I liked seeing the guy's betting setup in the attic, but I'm just not sure who your target audience is. I would only have to guess it costs dearly to put an ad like that together.

Good luck in your marketing efforts, and feed your online servers some VIAGRA already!

Sponge,

You hit the nail on the head. we have a kid walking around finding a wallet. Then we have a stripper... Now we know where Mr. Kyle gets all these stero-types. Just another black eye for the industry if you run these spots. Even the clean version can not be much better. Whats next? Hi my name is timmy and this is my freind guido. Little Tommy missed his 4 parlays this weeks so we are headed to go break his legs. Maybe next time he will play @ BHB and get at least a 10% bonus..

D2bets · Jan 29, 2004

This has to be some kind of joke. Nobody could possibly be stupid enough to put a kid in a commercial for an online sportsbook. And then to use the typeprint used in those (nauseating) anti-drug commercials. I can appreciate the sarcasm and all that but this is a "commercial" best laughed at in private and bever actully aired. It feeds right into the worst stereotypes.

I think they are trying to target players who aren't in the "know". Pretty dumb marketing strategy if you ask me and maybe you guys should divert funds from your marketing into IT

I can't see you guys around with the Beverly Hills Bookie name more than another year or two (unless you become a stiff joint). Legendz should just let the name die a slow death and reinvent you IMO

peteep · Jan 29, 2004

I have to disagree....I love the name. I think it's great, especially if you are trying to attract squares. Definately grabs your attention.

Guest · Jan 29, 2004

bhb,you are a pathetic joke

go2guy · Jan 29, 2004

You may have a point peteep, the name may have value from those who don't know any better. Need to work on that website though or their basically chasing their tails.
