Come on, man

A new PointsBet USA commercial in which former NFL quarterback Drew Brees is struck by lightning has made ACTUAL lightning strike victims upset.

Unlike any real lightning strike, one could have seen this coming from a mile away.

Lightning Strike and Electric Shock Survivors International released a statement condemning both parties involved.

“The recent Drew Brees lightning commercial is an inappropriate, disgusting method of promoting gambling or any TV commercial campaign,” LSESSI wrote. “This is a deadly injury, and it is disappointing to see the continual ridicule of lightning and electrical injury survivors in comical light in which it is presented for commercial gain and profit.”
