Has anyone else seen the SDC commercial that has been running lately? It describes Wildfire, but shows a video of some people riding the Tennessee Tornado. I know that parks do this some (WOF using a different Boomerang in last year's ad campaign), but the difference between an Arrow train and a B&M train is rather substantial. I wonder how many people will be puzzled when they show up at SDC and think that they "added" an extra two seats to each row?

First of all, the latest commercial I have seen shows both footage of the real Wildfire and footage of the TT. I don't think the GP will notice the difference anyway. IMO, most people that would notice the difference will know that they're not showing Wildfire.
When Dollywood promoted TT before it opened they used footage of Kumba. Exactly opposite of what you were describing! Most likely the general public wouldn't notice and/or care.

I saw it! It was way cool! Also there is a display at Wal*Mart that has discounts for day passes at SDC.

For SFA's commerical last year they showed footage of Viper from SFMM with a Superman logo instead of SFDL's S:ROS which was built the year before. Unfortunately I just saw this years commercial and they're doing the same again. Advertising agencies, obviously not coaster enthusiasts.
