Geico brought back the pig commercial for March Madness and fans are furious

Geico brought back the pig commercial for March Madness and fans are furious

Yahoo21-03-2025
After 15 years, Maxwell the Pig is back.
The plucky pig first debuted in the Geico ad back in 2010, when they heavily featured the 15 percent savings mantra and played on common phrases in a funny way.
"Could switching to Geico really save you 15% or more on car insurance?" says the nameless man with impeccable Unsolved Mysteries vibes. "Did the little piggie cry 'wee, wee, wee' all the way home?" It cuts to a pig with a pinwheel and his head out the window as he screamed "WEEEEEEEE" until his friend's mom informed him he was home.
Now for this year's March Madness in 2025, he's back. It's unclear what made the insurance agency dust Maxwell off the shelf, but it's a fun flashback.
Fans are complaining:
The Geico pig commercial is already driving me insane and it's only day one of the tourney

Jim Harbaugh's quirky Chargers training camp move became an instant meme

Jim Harbaugh is a social media superstar, not because he's online all the time -- that'd be wild given that he's an NFL coach -- but because fans love to focus on the quirky guy at the helm of the Los Angeles Chargers (I don't know, maybe it's because of the khakis). The latest piece of Jim Harbaugh weirdness? There's a clip of him at Chargers training camp looking through a curtain like he's peeping at practice. Why? Why ask why? It's just Jim Harbaugh, right? This isn't out of line for him. But of course, the clip became our first meme of 2025 NFL training camps, with folks putting funny captions under the shot of him looking through the curtain. Here's a sampling of what we saw as Chargers training camp kicks off this week: This article originally appeared on For The Win: Jim Harbaugh meme pops up from quirky move at Chargers training camp
