This video contains a full hour of Ernest commercials, together with a few out-takes and bloopers. The title of the video, "Win $10,000", comes from a contest in which you are supposed to count the number of times on the video that Ernest says "Vern" or "KnoWhutImean" and send in your answer to an address found on the back of the video-by April 1, 1988. Hard-core Ernest fans will be delighted to view this goldmine of classic Ernest material. Nevertheless, watching a whole hour of commercials can get to be a bit tiresome, KnoWhutImean?
