Eli Kamaka has a big love for philly cheesestakes since moving to Philadelphia to play for the Liberty. After eating at most cheesesteak places in Philadelphia, Kamaka found the best place for sandwiches at Pat’s King of Steaks on 9th Street and Passyunk Avenue. So after eating there 3 or 4 times a week, the Olivieri family wanted Kamaka to help them with a tv ad for the cheesesteaks. As you can imagine with a family outfit, they didn’t have that much money to spend on the ad so Kamaka was more than happy to help them out in exchange for free cheesesteaks for life. They filmed a pretty simple tv spot that begins with Kamaka running down 9th street and side stepping or dodging people in the streets and then arriving at Pat’s King of Steaks with a hot fresh philly cheesesteak waiting for him. He takes a big bite out the sandwich and gives a wink to the camera as Pat’s information is displayed on screen.
