Commercials in GTA San Andreas

Various radio commercials are featured on the radio stations of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The game introduced randomizing mechanics for radios so any of these commercials can play randomly on any station, with the exception of the Special Needs Cop commercial, which can only be heard on WCTR.
