Applicants are asked to do their best impersonations of Mattress Mack’s mannerisms, look and voice while pitching select pieces of furniture. Don’t forget to include some of his classic slogans.
"It always brings a smile to my face when I see the way people imitate the things I regularly say in commercials," Mattress Mack said in a news release. "I think this contest is going to be a lot of fun for everyone who participates, and I can’t wait for my ‘doppelgänger’ to join me on camera in a future Gallery Furniture ad!"
