The premise

Here’s the bit.

Two opposing hockey players prepare for a faceoff in an earnest-looking beer advertisement. The Rockets player sizes up his Night Hawks rival, and his sporting determination gives way to resentment over his wife leaving him for the other man. As an upbeat jingle praises their resolve, a swipe with a hockey stick launches a brawl that spreads across the rink. The advertisement finishes with the battered rivals sitting together on the ice, happily sharing beers as if the fight were just another athletic achievement.
