This is serious.
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield famously has more commercials than actual wins in 2019, but there is one particular commercial that drives people crazy.
One Progressive commercial has Mayfield pretending he lives at FirstEnergy Stadium where he sets up a sprinkler and searches the stadium for the source of a smoke alarm that continuously beeps.
That particular Progressive commercial has been driving dogs crazy so much from multiple households that someone actually started a petition to get rid of that commercial for good.
It reads as:

“Dog Lovers Unite! It’s time that we take action against Progressive, Baker Mayfield, and the terrible ‘low battery smoke alarm’ commercial that somehow made it through to television (it’s obvious that no dog owners were on the approval panel).
Every.single.time that this commercial comes on, I have to start singing/screaming as loud as I can, while simultaneously looking frantically for the remote to change the channel, in an attempt to drown out the faint smoke alarm beep at the beginning of the commercial that sends two of my three dogs into a fit of terror. The beeping only gets louder as the commercial drags on, so my screaming can only mask the first couple of beeps. I can’t tell which is the smoke alarm commercial when it first starts (it simply starts with Baker and a pop-up that says “At Home with Baker Mayfield”), so now I am screaming and looking for the remote at least 30 times during one football game (they have at least 10 ads with him and a minimum of one comes on every commercial break), so needless to say, it gets very tiresome – to the point where I’m wondering if it’s even worth watching the NFL games.
If your pup is as bothered by the unnecessary beeping as mine, please sign and spread the word!
