NBA Hall of Famer Larry Bird recently made a surprise appearance in a hilarious commercial aired during the Oscars, which has since taken the internet by storm. The commercial, sponsored by AllState, features Bird attempting to catch “Mayhem” causing chaos in his attic.
In the commercial, Bird is seen swiping at Mayhem with a lacrosse stick, leading to even more destruction in the attic. The chaotic scene crescendos with Bird falling through the ceiling while in pursuit of Mayhem, much to the amusement of viewers.
Despite Bird’s reputation for staying out of the spotlight since retiring from basketball, his appearance in the commercial has been well-received by fans and social media users alike. Many have praised the commercial for its humor and have expressed their support for the NBA legend.
Bird, often regarded as one of the greatest basketball players of all time, boasts an impressive career that includes three NBA titles, three league MVP awards, 10 All-NBA selections, and 12 All-Star nods. His legacy in the sport is undeniable, and his appearance in the AllState commercial only adds to his iconic status.
