Description

Mr. T talks about a guy who was calling his lady collect. "That made me smile." However, the guy was dialing 0, which made Mr. T mad.

He walks out the door of the gymnasium where some guys are playing basketball, and out in the hall is pay phone. Mr. T grabs the guy standing there, at which point we see he shaved his head and wrote (or tattooed) 1-800-COLLECT on the side of his head.

Adam. Updated above to credit you.

If you happen to check back, is this your IMDB? http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1477780/

Also, when you say Matt Goldfarb was the writer, can you elaborate on that? I can't find more information about him.

Thanks! Yes, that is my IMDB page.

Matthew Goldfarb was the writer of the commercial. Worked at the ad agency at the time. Has since, I think moved on.
