Julius Randle stars in local ad for rocking chair store on Jimmy Kimmel Live

Remember when, not so long ago, top athletes starred in cheesy commercials for local businesses?

Well, Jimmy Kimmel misses those days, so he turned to Los Angeles Lakers forward Julius Randle to revive the tradition.

In a segment that aired Friday, Randle played pitchman for the L.A. Rocking Chair Store, touting its 2004 award for the best rocking chair store in Los Angeles and boasting, "They got so many chairs, my butt doesn't know where to start."

The ad is also loaded with cheesy "rocking" puns and tacky visual effects befitting a turn-of-the-century production.
