A wave of nostalgia swept over social media during the first Thanksgiving Day NFL game between the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears, thanks to a vintage commercial. Oscar Mayer resurrected a 50-year-old ad featuring its iconic jingle, transporting viewers back in time.

The 1974 commercial stars a then-4-year-old Andy Lambros enjoying a sandwich on a dock while singing the unforgettable jingle: "My bologna has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R. My bologna has a second name, it's M-A-Y-E-R."

The commercial's reappearance delighted many viewers, who expressed their joy on social media. One X user exclaimed, "Best commercial ever! So glad to see it again on TV!!" Another simply commented, "Awwww what nostalgia."

While Oscar Mayer is known for its catchy jingles, like "Oh, I Wish I Were an Oscar Mayer Wiener," the story behind Lambros' solo performance is particularly interesting. Originally, the commercial was intended to feature a group of children singing. However, towards the end of filming, the director challenged the kids to perform solo. Lambros confidently stepped up, delivering a memorable performance, even adding a charming "How's that?" after taking a bite of his sandwich.

The re-aired commercial resonated with the Thanksgiving spirit, evoking cherished memories for many as they gathered with family to watch football. The timing couldn't have been better, tapping into the warm, nostalgic feelings associated with the holiday.
