Go to youtube and look at a few Quiznos commercial examples then imagine trying to make a living selling food.

Are you talking about the ads with the Sponge Monkeys from a few years ago? It seemed like they were trying to take advantage of an early viral video in their commercials, which is a good idea if more people actually knew who the Sponge Monkeys were. Since most people had no clue it was a pretty big fail.

For me though Quiznos food really sucks. They were WAY overpriced in the beginning for a sub that didn't really stand out in any way, and then they were already too late when they tried to roll out the $4 torpedoes...

*Edit* I missed your youtube link, it was the Sponge Monkeys you were talking about. This was the original video... http://www.rathergood.com/moon_song
