What I'd like to see is the non State Farm party call his insurance person
and Flo or that gecko show up...

Better explain to the 20's viewers what that green thing is hanging on the wall !
Shed not for her
the bitter tear
Nor give the heart
to vain regret
Tis but the casket
that lies here,
The gem that filled it
Sparkles yet

The commercial is good because the mom looks
like a 70's out of touch housewife. The dial phone,
the 70's wallpaper and clothes, it gets to point
across that you're living in the past if you don't have
State Farm. I had them for 45 years until they screwed
me, now I have the Gekko..

And State Farm has been great for us. We had a tornado take part of our roof and chimney, on a Friday evening. I called State Farm on Saturday morning, got estimates Saturday afternoon and Sunday, and at 7:30 Monday morning we had roofers on the house. I had the check to pay them Tuesday evening when they were finished.
Honestly, though, I think the company is irrelevant. It's a people business, and if you get a good person on the line your claim will go well. If you get a bad one, you're screwed. I got a good one, you got a bad one.

I never had a claim in 45 years. I had home and auto.
Out of nowhere they doubled my monthly payment.
My agent didn't know why, he said they were doing
that a lot. So I went elsewhere.

It's a box to hold your can. I heard of them back when you needed 2 cans and a string to talk to people. The string easily broke so they made a box.
