The first hastily made Cleveland tourism ad, like the city it was promoting, was an utter disaster. According to the YouTube page, “So The Cleveland Board of Tourism was not happy with the first video that I turned in. In fact, they said that upon viewing it, three of the board members moved away.” But worry not, they’re at it again, and it looks as though they got it right this time. Great success, filmmaker. I almost want to move there to see the first gay quarterback to receiver combo.

This fake tourism ad for Cleveland is undeniably charming, even if it is piling on top of a decade or two of “Cleveland sucks” jokes.  Just think, this abject hellhole would be far and away the most unlivable city in the NFL if it didn’t get such stiff competition from Baltimore, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Jacksonville, Buffalo, Cincinnati, and Green Bay.  And Houston ain’t no dream, either.

Discussion: Imagine if you had to live in an AFC North city.  Is Cincinnati actually the nicest city in the division?  Or do the race riots push the needle to… Pittsburgh?   What about death?  Is death an option?
