VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) - A Virginia Beach man's idea is going to be featured in one of the biggest commercials spots of the year, Super Bowl Sunday.

Allen Fabijan is an on-air personality for 106.1 New Country. On Super Bowl Sunday, his idea will be featured in a Lincoln Motor Company commercial for Lincoln's new car line. He was one of five people chosen for the 'Steer the Script' contest with comedian Jimmy Fallon.

The late night host selected just five tweets from over 6,000 tweets and wrote a script around it. Fabijan has already gone out to Hollywood to tape the big commercial. He says he is looking forward to watching the commercial with his family on Super Bowl Sunday.

"It's a little bit surreal. I'm kind of glad my wacky ideas did something more than just annoy my wife," Fabijan said. "It's great I'm glad that I can represent Hampton Roads and Virginia and it's been a fun process."

Fabijan can not reveal too much about the commercial before it airs. He could only tell WAVY.com it involves turtles, bikers, and game on the side of the road.
