Being a college athlete in the 2020s has its benefits, and Penn State receiver Julian Fleming got to reap one them by starring in a fun car commercial.
Fleming, a PA product out of Southern Columbia High School— roughly an hour and a half from State College— who committed to Penn State after four seasons with rival Ohio State, got together with dealership owner Blaise Alexander of Lewisburg to create something that wouldn’t have been possible for a college football player at the time Fleming started his college career.
At the start of the commercial, Fleming smashes the window of a Toyota with a hammer, with his name in spelled out in big letters in the background, after asking viewers if they were “tired of being hammered on the price?”
After that, Fleming flipped the car over after asking “Are you flipped in your trade?”
The rest of the commercial wasn’t as crazy, but Fleming and Alexander sent the message loud and clear.
