It was a Jack In The Box commercial. The shot was of the portal road but it was going the wrong way!!

Did anybody else see this?

Hi I don't know about the hamburger but did many miles on a motorbike like that. My brother had one also, so some time in the late 60's we got a letter to go to Mission Bay and form the west Coast BMW club one other person showed up and thats the rest of the story!

This is funny. I watched the Super Bowl but missed that commercial. I'm wondering how it is they flipped this and why. It seems like it would be easier to just keep it the way its supposed to be. I'm thinking they would have had to go through extra steps to turn the footage around. I'm no expert on the filming industry though. It's funny regardless.

The important thing is that Rattlesnake Hill had a cameo. Nailed it, too, I thought.

I think you're missing the zen-like message of the whole clip: "For one to 'travel the world,' one needs not leave Lone Pine..."

Quite odd -- if flipped, wouldn't the angle of Jack's hat also be pointing in the opposite direction when compared to all of the other shots? All appear to be consistently on the left side of his enormous heeeeeed.

Yes, you should climb Lone Pine Peak, plus Peak 3985. Say, mid- August. Maybe the Cook will join us. It'll be... super!

We should do Mt. Rockwell (rumors out there that 3985 is getting a new name) as a Group Climb...

Would anybody be upset if I posted a "What have I been telling you" in that other thread that I really should go back and read? Zoners...............
