Subway announces new spokesman - Wednesday, March 19, 2008
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Call it a passing of the torch.
Jared Fogle, who previously weighed 780 pounds and thought nothing of subsisting on beef and chocolate for days on end, has officially relinquished his role as Subway spokesman to Mike Fasolo.
Since Fasolo rarely updates his blog, few people knew that his weight ballooned to 410 pounds as recently as October. However, by having a delicious Subway sub for breakfast, lunch and dinner -- and playing Ultimate Frisbee on weekends -- Fasolo was able to get down his present 150 pounds in a matter of months.
"Subway welcomes Mike Fasolo to the Subway family," said a nonexistent Subway spokeswoman.
However, scientists say it's important Fasolo doesn't lose too much more weight. Below is an artist's rendition of Fasolo if he were to lose just 15 more pounds.
