Sometimes I'm incredibly proud to call myself an Ohioan. Now is not one of them.

Wow, I live in Ohio and this just shows how embarrassing it is to live in the state.

I'm an Ohioan, and I approve of this, why?

1. Its creative, thinking outside of the box

2. They are having fun, I forgot you had to be professional and a copyrights holder to enjoy breathing on planet earth

3. Its already gotten a stir out of "sensitive" types, embarrassed and flustered. Mission Accomplished Laughing

Was this recorded from the inside of a trash can? Shocked

Not a bad idea but the rapper could've at least sounded a little more enthusiastic... Confused

Then again, most of the Ohio Transpotation PSA's aren't all that great...

All this footage is from the three-part pilot episode of Transformers (1984).

No comment on the overall quality of this PSA. Wink

I'm from Ohio and I thought it was pretty funny! Kind of like a 4Kids cartoon intro!

Are you sure this is new? It wasn't actually made back when Transformers was still a new show? Because this, like, totally screams "1985!", y'know?
