The official play by play lists it as
S.Rocca punt is BLOCKED by M. Wilson, Center - N. Sundberg, RECOVERED by NO - C.Roby at WAS 4. C. Roby for 4 yards , TOUCHDOWN
I can't see this being considered a punt return.

It won't go down in the stats as a punt or a punt return.

Seems like a punt to me
ETA: I dont see how this could be considered a punt return. Just trying to play devils advocate here.

It may not be an official return, but if enough people fought them it could become a public relations disaster for their company.
Eta: doubt that many people actually bought furniture during that period anyways

Uh I just bought some...an entertainment center. I'll have to look into it. $1200 worth

Id definitely check into it! The play was a punt. It blocked after it left his foot. Roby(the returner) picked it up and took it for a touchdown. I'd tell them i want something extra because a block punt returned for a TD is even less likely!

I saw that comercial myself and was also wondering how they handle it.

According to the advertisement I think it should count. The ball came off the punter's foot and was returned for a touchdown by a saints player.

Found these post on Facebook:
Does Olinde's sell Ashley?
Looks like they are not honoring it.

Hey my peeps. Just to let yall know. Dont trust olindes furniture store in B.R. They promo lies to suck in bussiness. My nephew and wife made lge purchase and signed up for promo on saints game. Their purchase furniture would be free if saints scored on punt return. Well one punt,one return equals 6 pts. Olindes back peddled and said it was not official. Last time i ckd a punt return was a punt return. Go figure. Olindes is false advertizing. Maybe u should purchase furniture at another co. Thats honors its promos. Just sayin. Help me out ppl. Pass this msg along to your friends. Tks for your support

Roby didn't received the ball; he retrieved the ball ... End of story .. Everyone still have to keep paying for their furnitures...

well, in that advertisement, it says it has to be recorded as an official punt return touchdown by the official scorer, well it was not recorded as an of punt return. So, I believe, the furniture stores are safe.

I would love to see a few videos of customers arguing that it was a punt return

Dammit! I woulda bought that bed I was eyeing had I known about this!

As an attorney, if I could read the wording of the promotion...I'd represent them.

Olindes recently bought all the Ashley stores. At the BR location all of 2 people of the hundreds that signed up called to inquire after the fact. They were informed of the interpertation of the rule and had no problem with it.

Apparently they didn't honor it. I hope someone sues.
