ESPN's Terrible Towel Commercial Will Give You Goosebumps

BY SEAN CONBOY

We do our fair share of making fun of ESPN, like when they dreamed up a cockamaime new QB-rating formula that ranked Dan Orlovsky ahead of Ben Roethlisberger, but let's give credit where it's due: This new ESPN commercial featuring the Terrible Towel is goosebump-inducing.

You can sumbit your own photos and videos of all the crazy places you've taken your Terrible Towel at towelaroundtheworld.com
