I'd have to go with Vince personally. He knows how to use his indoor voice.

I saw an advertisement for a reality show about becoming a pitchman that's suppose to star Billy Mays and a regular infomercial guy, whose name escapes me at the moment.

Anyway, out of the two in the poll, I have to go with Mays. Offer is more of a novelty. Plus, Billy Mays says everything in rhyme, that has to count for something.

I wouldn't buy either of their crap though.

He also knows how to beat up hookers.

Vince catches my attention better. Billy Mays just makes me think of Al from Tool Time.

Yea, Vince is awesome.
Only because he looks so much like the Scout.

Which combines quite nicely with the "you're gonna love my nuts" quote...

Honestly, I wish they'd both shut the hell up. =/

Maybe, but there's not much challenge in selling a decent product. The test of a true pitchman is to sell useless crap at a premium price.

For instance, whoever was selling those stupid robes that you wear backwards was a marketing genius. Or whoever realized they could sell a useless stick of wax as a headache reliever, just by saying "Apply directly to the forehead" three time in row.

I hate you.

I finally got that damn saying out of my head and then this post came along.

Billy Mays here for WINNING THIS THREAD (not ShamWow).

It's either that or listening to Vince do something like this:

That was hilarious

I picked Billy Mays but that is only because I've seen his in more commercials than Vince. They're both pretty funny though
