Joe Torre Surfs, Does Yoga in State Farm Commercial
By Larry Brown August 12, 2008 - Posted in Baseball, YouTubeage
I knew that Joe Torre got a ton of press because, well, let’s face it — he was the manager of the Yankees during their superb run from ’96-’03. But I didn’t know he was much of a pitchman, unlike say, Greg Oden. Even though the last time Torre appeared in a commercial was 1985, he was immediately cast in a State Farm Insurance commercial upon arriving in LA. Anyone who watches Dodger games has surely seen this great spot, but I’m not sure it’s been out there for a national audience, so here it is:
The yoga scene is tight, but for my money, it doesn’t get much better than Joe Torre surfing in the Pacific Ocean, while wearing his Dodger cap no less. Dude, it’s OK to take it off when you’re in the water, OK?
