You’ve seen plenty of comedians appear in State Farm TV commercials with Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers, but tonight, you’ll start seeing a comedian without Rodgers, but who looks pretty darn close to him.
Meet Tom Wrigglesworth!
Wrigglesworth is a comedian from Sheffield, England, who was a finalist for an award at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2009, and can often be heard on BBC Radio. He’s also been a presenter for BBC TV and The Discovery Channel.
In this 30-second spot, “Being Aaron,” the comedian subs in for Rodgers because the NFL quarterback is too busy with the playoffs.
In real life, NFL Films helped hook up Wrigglesworth and Rodgers in Green Bay back in October. It’s a fun ride. Watch the whole thing!
