Diamondbacks spoof GEICO commercial

Feb 23, 2013, 12:44 AM | Updated: 12:54 am

You know those GEICO commercials that feature some random scene followed by a couple of guys playing a banjo talking about how happy the person is?

They’re kind of funny. Especially this one with a slinky going down an escalator. Or this one with a witch in a broom factory. Or this one with Dikembe Mutombo blocking shots.

Anyway, the Arizona Diamondbacks took a stab at the concept, with Matt Williams in an intersection directing traffic. There’s been no word on how many cars that should have been going were told to stop and how many that should have stopped were told to go.
