Captain Bill Burt Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Back in December quite a few members of Doc Holliday's Immortals were asked to appear in a commercial for cowboy ammunition. I don't think I'm supposed to post a commercial link, so I'm posting a link to my FB page instead. These guys were super nice, and it was very interesting filming the commercial. Steamboat, Rapidfire Rachel, Pale Ale Rider, Iron Cowboy, Ozark Azz, Maggie Darlin, The Rainmaker and me all had our 2 seconds of fame. Take a gander if you're interested. https://www.facebook.com/CaptainBillBurt/
Ocoee Red #31751 Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Nice job by all the "actors" Capt Bill.
StirrupTrouble Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 That was really cool. Maybe someone will see the commercial and find our sport
DocWard Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Great commercial, hopefully good for the sport. How's the ammo, though?
Captain Bill Burt Posted January 21, 2016 Author Posted January 21, 2016 Thanks Red! I thought it was interesting and encouraging that a company would be willing to spend that kind of money to attract the attention of SASS shooters. The production company had to have spent at least $25-30 grand just on the filming, so how much did the manufacturer pay them? I like what that implies about the future of SASS. I wasn't one of the shooters who was using their ammo, though I can say there were no ammunition related problems at all. I'll take a little dig at my partner Pale Ale Rider and point out that he went through two rifles before using mine for his rifle segment, which is why the last two rifle shooters are shooting the same rifle.
Major BS Walker Regulator Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Would like to see that commercial on local TV in place of all those GEICO commercials.
Rhsty Heatmore Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Nice!!, We need more of the manufactures to get involved to get the word out about the game we love.
Dutch Coroner Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 That was very nice! Thanks for sharing. Dutch
Buck D. Law, SASS #62183 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I'm going to need an autograph.
Captain Bill Burt Posted January 22, 2016 Author Posted January 22, 2016 Thanks pards! Ozark Azz finished it strong with his pistols! Buck I will give you the autograph plus three dollars if you promise to keep it and treasure it forever.
Lone Dog, SASS #20401 Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 "Due to privacy settings this video cannot be played here"
Captain Bill Burt Posted February 19, 2016 Author Posted February 19, 2016 It's a Vimeo thing. If you click the link eventually it will play.
Idaho Coyote' Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Great Video......and a great advertisement for Sass and cowboy action.
Bad Hand Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 I believe the narrator called a '73 a '92.
Yul Lose Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Would like to see that commercial on local TV in place of all those GEICO commercials. GEICO can probably afford to pay more.
Blackey Cole Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Nice work but someone familiar with guns should have proofed it they say feeding you cattleman or 92 but the guy was shooting a 73 from the looks of it.
Captain Bill Burt Posted February 20, 2016 Author Posted February 20, 2016 Yep, the Rainmaker shot a '92, but when the narrator mentions a '92, Pale Ale Rider was shooting my '73. I don't think anybody had a Cattleman. The people who filmed it, Sight Picture Media, are all shooters, but weren't familiar with cowboy guns.
