Camera crews flooded the East Tennessee town of Greenback on Monday. Residents of the city were extras in a commercial for H & R Block.

All they had to do was let some of the company's tax experts take a look at their returns and then talk about their experience on camera.

Since the city participated in the shoot, H & R Block will give a big grant to Greenback schools. "Greenback being a small K thru 12 school, we need all the funds we can get for the kids. New computers or anything that would enhance their learning experience," said Greenback Resident Lynn Cargile.

Close to 175 people participated in the commercial.
