A Story About Strange Timing
There was a company that had been running the exact same radio commercial for at least 15 years. It usually played during baseball night games, so I heard it almost every day. Towards the end of the commercial, it would say, 'Expanding to 15 stores in [Region Name].' About a year ago, I suddenly thought, 'They say they're 'expanding,' but the commercial hasn't changed in over 15 years, have they?' So I checked the company's website, and their number of stores had actually decreased. 'They're not expanding, they're shrinking!' I laughed. The very next day, Sure enough, the commercial was renewed, and the version without the mention of 15 stores or 'expanding' was broadcast. It was incredibly strange that a commercial that hadn't changed for so long, which I happened to notice and look up the company for, would be renewed the very next day.
