GEICO is known for their funny insurance commercials. I know, how can funny and insurance be in the same sentence but from the reemergence of the Caveman to the Billy Blanks workout ad, they are swishing three-pointers with every commercial and since it’s March, of course GEICO had to get in on the madness. Here’s their latest sports-related ad, then scroll down for more…
It’s a full court press of laughter but the buzzer beater was when the band member played her clarinet through sobbing tears. The whimpering sound that proceeded was hilarious. Plus the innocent use of the word “geek” was perfect. One of my pet peeves is when movie or TV show scripts write dialogue for kids but not in any type of way a real child would talk. Having this young actress attack the point guard as a geek is very refreshing in that regard.
Then a music celebrity appears donning an LSU sweatshirt. I can’t find any ties between country/soul singer Breland and LSU but he may have a future in acting because his scene was great. I especially love the way he turns his head at the very end of the ad, as if to tell his friend he better shape up.
Breland performed the national anthem at the Big 12 championship a few weeks back so I’ll end with his well-done rendition…

It’s never okay to be unkind and slapping that bowl of popcorn is reverse racism. If that happened to me, I would punch the kid in the face. And I’ m a white grandmother. Geico I will not be buying insurance from you, ever.
