Jared Fogle

For Jared Fogle, life was good for this Jew [1]. He gained the love of a nation in 2000, when Subway began an ad campaign telling his compelling story of losing nearly 250 pounds by consuming their footlongs. After appearing in over 300 television commercials, Fogle had amassed around $15,000,000 in net worth, and was beloved by the public. Everything was perfect.

Jared has been getting into smaller and smaller pants.

That was, until the FBI paid him a little visit in July of 2015, looking for his possible child pornography stash.

Life

Why don't you have a seat, Jared?

Jared Fogle once wore a size 62-inch pair of pants, before losing weight by eating low-fat Subway sandwiches and walking a lot. After a 1999 article in the Indiana Daily Student detailed his massive weight loss, a franchisee pitched the idea to a Subway advertising agency of centering commercials around Fogle's story, and thus a star^✡ was born. The gig with Subway has made it such that Fogle has never held a real job in his life.

The now 190-pound, but still creepy-looking Fogle was a boon hawking sandwiches for Subway, who attribute half their growth in sales to Fogle.

Fogle finished in 36,968th place out of 44,829 in the New York City Marathon in November 2010.

Jared Foundation

Founded in 2004, the Jared Foundation "raises awareness about childhood obesity". Unfortunately, it seems to have instead raised awareness about preying on children after its director, Russell Taylor, was arrested for child exploitation and possession of child pornography.

FBI pays Jared a visit

On July 7, 2015, the FBI and Indiana State Police searched Fogle's home, just checking for innocent things. Subway subsequently suspended its relation with Fogle. Considering Subway's entire sales pitch for fifteen years has been this one man's weight loss, it remains to be seen what Subway's commercials will be like going forward if the suspension is prolonged.
