He's a Chinese basketball star who came over to play in the NBA. (Yao Ming) The commercial is one of the most annoying things I've ever seen.

He wants to pay by check, but there's a sign "no checks". Instead of saying, "We don't take checks", the girl says, "Yo" and points to the sign. Yao says "Yao" as if she's mispronouncing his name. This goes a couple of rounds before the manager comes by and it starts all over. Annoying might be too tame a word.

It was cute (on the low average end of the bell curve) the first 5 or so times it ran. Now its just more electronic noise to tune out.

Oh, you've got to be kidding. I don't even like professional basketball and I find it to be hilarious. Especially when Yogi Berra shows up at the end and the same thing happens.
