Heightism Throwback: DirecTV "Petite Randy Moss".

About 10 years ago, DirecTV put out the above video entitled "Petite Randy Moss". It has been since scrubbed from their website and most of the internet.

Basically, it was about convincing people to switch to Direct TV. Randy Moss, the NFL football player was shown wearing a nice modern suit, living in a luxury condo and living the good life, while "Little Randy Moss" was wearing uncomfortable horribly fitted clothing, had a crappy apartment and struggled to get cereal from the top shelf of a supermarket. Only god knows why the short actor who played "Petite Randy Moss" subjected himself to that level of foolery.

I remember TheLowerView (ShortGuyCentral back then) did a write up on this, promoted it and the backlash against it grew so big that they cut the commercial. This was about 10 years ago. TheLowerView's predecessor can't take all of the credit, but the negative response spread all the way through social media and made an impact.

DIRECTV scrubbed it from the internet (which is why the links to the write up here are broken), but others copied the video and put it on their own pages (link in the first paragraph).

Just thought it would be great to share this with all of the negative commentary surrounding the new 5'3 Wolverine scene in the new Deadpool movie.
