Yes, pretty funny, I had seen it over 100 times and I think it was last season's campaign; so likely why it is in less rotation or gone now.
 
Yea I saw that last year when I was living up in michigan and then saw it later in the year in georgia. It never played much, probably ticked off some womens sensitivity group or something or some metrosexual mens group and they complained.
 
OK, the ad in question is called "Manthem" and here are some details from last summer about it after it was recognized.

I also was able to find out that it was NOT EVER shelved by any pressure, complaint or anything else negative, but rather the direction of not wanting to it fall into the trap of being over played, thus becoming annoying.

It has resurfaced in some markets (DFW TX area only?) over the last month for promo targets; the "Texas Double Whopper" promo going on AGAIN right now; so this ad was unshelved from their archive because it fits the promo and was never over played; and it only gets minor edits to become "new again" instead of the costs of shooting something 100% new.

Mystery solved.
 
I saw that commercial. I thought it was good, something new.
