1-800-Contacts "Snake" (2014) :30 (USA)

There was a show called Eaten Alive where a guy supposedly wanted to get eaten alive by a boa constrictor but what happened instead was not much and America flipped its shit because apparently they wanted to watch a guy get eaten alive by a snake and this is what The Discovery channel, and by extension, America, has become.
I mention this because the creators of this spot moved up the air date from January, to around the time "Eaten Alive" actually came out to try and capitalize on it.
My question for y'all is, was it worth the price of admission?
