Did they only air this in the LA region? I was at a bar before the Troubador show & saw it.

The promo seems to be taken from the george Lopez show he did last month 2 launch 21 dyas in LA. I'm actually a little shocked that his music is popping up during hte finals in several places TNT Promo, and I've been hearing "Thunder" throughout the pre-game show on ABC.

Maybe if he would have played the National Anthem via his guitar for The DAL-LAK matchup in LA, the Lakers wouldn't have been swept.

LAKERS- FAIL!

...Girl, U excite me so......ooh wee baby, I bet ur quite a lover.....

NBA on ABC played "Thunder" as a tie-in to the series between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Memphis Grizzlies in the Western Conference semi-finals. Prince or his manager should take advantage of this promo by arranging to play at the halftime of one of the NBA Finals game or something like that. The 21 Nights in LA is a big hit, and it's only going to get better.

I wonder if Favre ever caught up with Prince? lol

Seriously though, those ads are cool and being played a lot. Could be a nice little payday for P.

Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.
