I lived in Casper, Wyoming for nearly two years, so the latest Easterns Motors commercial takes on some added significance for me. For my first and only Halloween in the Cowboy State, I went as Cap'n Comin' Backatcha, a character inspired by Clinton Portis' Sheriff Gonna Getcha and Reverend Gonna Change. The costume featured a life preserver inscribed with "S.S. Playoffs", a Heath Shuler jersey, a black velvet jacket, cowboy boots, a stick-on goatee and some dollar-store stunna shades. Unimpressed, the Redskins would finish the season 5-11.
For the record, I never encountered a liger in Wyoming, though it's possible they were hiding in one of the state's four trees. I did see a a lot of pronghorns and one night I bumped into Casper native Mike Devereaux in a bar.
There's more on the new Easterns spots at the D.C. Sports Bog.

Do you remember that night at Sidelines where two girelephants bought Peter and me some Budweisers?
They were like girelephants without the long necks.
I'm going to start referring to Allie as an Allieark.
I've totally seen a liger in Wyoming. They're like a cougar with more hair and cigarettes!
That was one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time!
