We've seen more stories than I care to list where short athletes are mocked for committing the offense of infringing on the tall man's zone of superiority by being athletically gifted. Kyler Murray was a Heisman Trophy winning QB at The University of Oklahoma and is now one of the best young quarterbacks in the NFL as the starting QB for the Arizona Cardinals. As you can guess, announcers, fans, other athletes, blogs etc., absolutely salivate at the opportunity to make cracks about Murray's height(He's listed at 5'7)
Now, Nissan has gotten in on the act by making him stand on top of a football helmet while using a feather duster.
In this commercial, they didn't mock Tim Tebow's religious beliefs, Marcus Mariota's Pacific Islander heritage, or Lamar Jackson's dreadlocks, but they absolutely could not resist mocking Murray's height, and he was more than happy to Garmin-it-up for a fee. We've come to expect nothing less.
