Description

Chad, Alltel "salesman", is walking down the street when a woman runs up and asks about switching from one of the other wireless companies. She says if she wants to change her plan at the other company, she would need to extend her contract. Chad explains that at Alltel she could change her plan without extending the contract.

Just then, the geek-guy van zooms out of an alley, and cuts them off. The guys jump out, and Verizon (red shirt) threateningly asks "Thinking about leaving us?" Then AT&T (orange shirt, formerly Cingular) says "I wouldn't, if you want to see Fluffy again." Sprint (yellow shirt) reveals a Pug dog they have captive.

The woman says it's not her dog, but the geeky guys soon find out they nabbed the wrong pooch when a nearby muscular guy recognizes it as his dog. The guys run off yelling "Abort! Abort!"

Complementing this commercial, Alltel has an interactive website - officialmancave.com - in which you can explore the basement where the "Sales Guys" like to hang out. The guys even have their own myspace page. Chad has had one for a while, too. (Chad's myspace)
