Southern Comfort - Patio / Whatever's Comfortable - (2012) :30 (USA)

He's back. Yes the man who invented the beach strut in an earlier commercial now appears in a shorter ad. He may be breaking the "no shirt" rule, but he does have shoes, so here he is on the patio, hanging. Flag flying high. Whatever's comfortable.

Apparently, it's Mel Shampain.

I don't know if that's a stage name - but that's the name currently being given credit for this commercial.
