Does she die?

[Coach Tuesday]

The Visa commercial about the Bills fan that spans three generations.  Does his wife die?  The one he proposed to during the Norwood kick?  She’s not there at the end of the commercial when he’s buying a jersey for his granddaughter and I was getting Up vibes.  Is she dead?  
 

Thanks.

She’s on TBD bitching about Allen and Dorsey.

Thanks.

Why would she go to get the Norwood jersey? She’s probably prepping at home for game day.

She died. Some idiot slide down the guardrail at the Ralph and landed on her in a lower deck. He sued the Bills and won $7.6 million dollars. He's currently broke after buying that jersey and 2 tall boys in the stadium.

I choose the happy ending, with her still being alive.  They are just passing on the tradition to the little girl. Go Bills!

The commercial focuses on him, he’s the only one in each scene from kid to granddad. That’s the narrative structure.

I think she’s dead.

the guy seems to get old rather quickly from buying a Nordwood jersey to being a granddad of an approximately 8 year old.  

 

But I don't think she is dead, as @jimmy10 pointed out, the Grandfather is the commercial's theme of passing down fandum.

That’s why you’re a ray of sunshine on an otherwise cloudy day.

Hey, I didn’t kill her!  Though he may have.

Old and kind of less Hispanic?

I assumed she hung herself somewhere along the way.

Yeah, the initial guy does age and change ethnicities rather quickly.  I noticed that also.  

 

A commercial with a great theme that was horribly done.

Or, hear me out, EVERYone is dead. He and the granddaughter are the only survivors of a zombie apocalypse, and the most heartwarming part is that kid can walk the earth free from being made fun of for wearing a Norwood jersey.

More like Walking Dead meets Four Falls of Buffalo.

I love the morbidity in this thread

Should have been a 17 jersey. Only buffalo finds nostalgia in gut wrenching pain

Damn. He got 7.6m for that. I should have thought of that a long time ago 

[Matt_In_NH]

I “don’t get” the commercial.   What is the deal with the Norwood jersey with everything centered?
