John Barr, Findlay Toyota winner of
Most Annoying Local TV Commercial
in the Reader's poll.




He wants to save you money. He wants to sell you a Findlay Toyota. He is cheesy John Barr, but loads of people call him "that Rod Stewart guy," because his weird flush of hair reaches skyward. His TV ads might be more fetching if he used a camcorder. But maybe our voters in this category are just jealous. Second place went to Happy Harry of Happy Harry's Quality Liquidators. You can't be a high-profile salesmen without getting on people's nerves.
