Texas-based telecommunications company AT&T recently released a commercial that shows that its unlimited data plans will always have consumers covered.
Dubbed 'Unlimited Romance,' the ad shows a couple in all white making out on the beach, while dramatic music plays in the background. As the couple rolls over one another, they move across the beach, and eventually crush a little boy's sandcastle. They then tumble into a road and across a busy intersection, onto an airplane tarmac, into a forest, onto a snow-covered mountain top, into the ocean, and then back onto the beach -- where they roll over too of another couple who's doing the same.
With this absurd scenario, AT&T shows that its unlimited data plans will never run out.
