Pool Featured in Lincoln commercials

Really like the second one, have seen the first more than a dozen times on TV, It really bothers me that the way the table lays on first view, if the cue goes outside the 8 ball then between the 3 and 10, it would end up hitting a diamond off side pocket not corner pocket noticed this the first time I saw the spot has bothered me ever since.

I guess you missed the point of the commercial, it wasn't about promoting pool correctness.
 
Any pool table in use, or not in use in a commercial hasn't a damn thing to do with pool, they're merely props to gain your attention to tune in to what is being advertised for sale. There won't be one more league player signing up to play in the APA, or running into the nearest pool room asking if someone can teach them how to shoot the shots made in the commercials....but Lincoln on the other hand, may sell a few cars because of them!!

I understand, however the masse shot is not Tiger woods bouncing the ball off his wedge and hitting a hole in one, Its not MJ shooting a shot from the moon in a game of horse against bugs bunny, It a real thing that is immpressive enough on it own why edit it to an unrealistic thing.

It bothers me enough that I will not even look at a Lincoln, Will be test driving a Model X next month

Don't worry, 99.9% of the viewers don't even know what a masse shot is😂
