    I grew up in Riverdale, Bronx and I remember going to our neighborhood pizzeria where kids my age would hang out. There was a big crowd around the two arcade game consoles and I asked someone "what's going on" and someone in that crowd told me Alfonzo from the Pepsi game was here. I saw the commercial and knew who he was and I even remember seeing a guy (he was older than me) standing in front of the console dressed in a red leather jacket.
    To this day, I don't know if it was actually Alfonzo or if someone in the crowd made it up, but in my childhood memory, the star from Pepsi came into our pizzeria and played Pacman!

    This was the shit! This reminds me of being a kid. This was a time when a lot of special was happening. Hip Hop was just starting to come in to it's own,breakdancing,rapping,ect. The 80's was the absolute shit.

    i got chills when they show MICHAEL'S shoes at 0:35, and also when he bumps in to Alfonso at 0:41 and MICHAEL turns around, greatest parts of this commercial, and the reaction of the kid at 0:45

    I remember watching this when it was first on tv. Ahhhh! I would wait and wait for that few seconds of a glimpse of Michael's face! Thank goodness for the internet these days, huh? LOL

    I love it when people put "High Quality" in title and the actual video quality is 240p and you can definatly tell it is Carlton when he smiles.
