Watch CNY's Olympic Luger Erin Hamlin Turn Into 'The Rocket'

The hits keep coming for Remsen native Erin Hamlin. On the verge of competing in her next Olympic Games, she's getting all sorts of attention and public relations perks.

First, there was the feature article in Cosmo. Then, Topps included her in a set of its trading cards featuring members of the 2018 United States Winter Olympic Team. How do you top that?

Here's how the TV spots look:

Hamlin is a star right up front and gets to deliver the big punchline. As you might imagine, a lot of hard work and special effects went into the making of these ads.

United Airlines even produced actual action figures for all the Olympians and employees starring in the commercials. Here's a picture of Hamlin's from her Facebook page:
