I gotta think the actor who plays Jake From State Farm is having the best day of his life.  Michael B F'ing Jordon played him on SNL.  That's not quite Weird Al doing a parody of your song, but it's in the neighborhood.

The OG Jake was an agent, and has since left the company.

The new Jake is an actor.

How was this any more of an ad than any of their other parodies?  Do you think State Farm actually paid them money to do that skit?

That would have been a solid ending too. Have Jake get taken out by a home accident and then the mayhem guy steps into frame to deliver the final line.

Of the past five years, that is my absolute favorite pre-recorded skit. Beck Bennett played idiot husband character better than anyone else. He's like a live-action Homer Simpson. Heidi absolutely makes the skit.

Oddly enough, Heidi's name was Chloe in this skit (obviously NSFW):

The real Jake from State Farm lives in my neighborhood. I see him pretty regularly at parties and bars in the area. Goes by Jacko. Dude is straight up gangster when he's not in front of a camera. Keeps a 9mm in his belt and won't hesitate to slap a biatch. Regularly participates in sideshows in his Bentley. He makes Wayne Brady look like Bryant Gumbel. Don't believe what you see on TV. It's all an act. He's one badass mofo.

I don't think SNL paid them, but they probably asked permission first after Safelite gave them a bunch of shiat after their skit using their branding.
