If you have ever lived near a Cal Worthington car dealership, chances are you’ve seen his "my dog Spot" ads. For those that haven’t seen them, they show Cal standing on a car lot and he says "I’m Cal Worthington and this is my dog Spot." His dog Spot is a different animal each time, ranging from monkeys to elephants.

Cal has created a Web site called My Dog Spot that has copies of some of the commercials and includes some great outtakes. Watch Cal’s nervous laughter as an elephant pees on his shoes.

Boy, this brought back quite a few memories of my childhood. The jingle in particular… Thanks Cal for the good times, even if we were too dirt poor to buy a car from ya.. :D
