New Geico commercial with Billy Blanks

I don’t know how long this has been airing, but I just saw this for the first time this morning. Good for Billy!

I loved seeing it during the Christmas football game! Meant to come here and post but I didn't, so I'm glad you did.
What other instructors would be well enough known to pull this off? I couldn't think of many - Jillian Michaels of course, and Tony Horton.

I think Richard Simmons did a few commercials. Denise Austin did Idaho potato commercials. And, of course, Bob Harper.

I thought, wow he still looks good, hubby said "He's still alive??", lol. But then I thought it looked like it was making fun of his son when he went on that something shark show that supports new ideas? (I can't remember). But it was funny!!
