Fathead’s Verlander spot is beyond stupid

Oh no! Our friend is choking! Hey, giant sticker on the wall – can you help while we just stand around? 

The MLB playoffs have forced this ad down our throats at nearly every commercial break. Even after the first viewing it was impossible to ignore the cheesiness and pure stupidity of this commercial. A sticker saves you from choking. The very same sticker makes one of the lamest jokes we've ever heard. The guy choking had an entire wing in his mouth, bone included – who does that? 

We assume Verlander – well, sticker version of Verlander – forgot about the times he has choked, like say his performance in the 2006 World Series against St. Louis.
