How is this a good advertisement? It implies that direct auto has lower standards than whatever team cut him


It’s like Buick...”you will be shocked when you see the new Buick if you’re used to what a piece of shite looking car we’re known for making.”

I think it’s great that they’re cool with poking fun at their failures.

Here’s one of the same commercials they did with Tonya Harding.

A better quote would have been

"When Johnny Football goes on a coke and hooker binge and wraps Johnny Football's sports car around a tree I know Direct Auto Insurance protects Johnny Football and Johnny Football does not have to scramble"

or

"Direct Auto doesn't give a shite about liability"

You get released therefore should be unemployed for a year?

Doesn’t he come from money? I’d always heard and read that his folks are well off. I don’t know if it’s old or new money but am I in error here?

There’s some money there.

There’s also rumors of a Manziel mafia.

Direct does insurance for people with shitty credit, DWI’s, etc.

That’s why they have a campaign with Manziel, Tonya Harding, etc.

I think it’s pretty damn good marketing

Huh? Auto insurance agencies sell policies to anybody regardless of credit long as they can pay their premiums. Don’t know what bearing that has on it.
