Chuck E. Cheese
The commercial starts with a cartoon mouse taunting children to "Get it past" him ("it" being a soccer ball), and then they can go to his "place" (the "place" being a local Chuck E. Cheese Pizza Restaurant).
My first reaction would be puzzlement or perhaps horror. I mean, come on! It's a huge talking rat that's taunting me! But the children react with boisterous laughter. Nothing particularly funny was said, so I assume that it must be nervous/maniacal laughter, like that "We're all gonna DIE" laughter you get on a roller coaster. And I guess that fits... after all, they *are* being taunted by a huge talking rat!
