More Bang For The Advertising Buck
Recently a design student in Amsterdam, tired of ads being placed everywhere, set up a satirical website. The site advertises for companies to place ads in such places as on zoo animals, floating billboards, and on the chest and thighs of prostitutes.
He might be on to something but the product placement on the chest and thighs of hookers would have to be well thought out.
Some Ads That Might Work:
Viagra and other impotence drugs
Condom's
Poker.net
My Space.com
Some Ads That Might Not Work:
Wisconsin Cheese Board
Wendy's 'Where's The Beef' Ads.
Valtrex Herpes Suppression Medication
I am undecided on feminine hygiene ads. I just wonder if they could be done tastefully.

Beano probably wouldn't be a good ad either.
How about Ball Park Franks?? That might work.
We saw the new Pirates movie too. It was great!! I was not impressed at all with Superman Returns, but I had high hopes for Pirates. It did not disappoint.
I'm anxious to see the next one. Arrrrrgh!!
porn websites would work best I bet... LOL
I'm back! Muhahahaaaa....
Yes, we are slowly becoming a planet of freaks! Is nothing sacred???
I for one cannot see going 2 the zoo and looking at animals with advertising on them! How far can we take greed??? :(
Did U like the Pirates of the Caribbean? I wanna C it!!!
;]
Good ones:Penile implant doctors; Milk (it does the body good and comes in jugs, right?)
Bad ones: Carpet cleaners; Massingill or other douches.
I'm thinking "No-Pest" strips for a bad ad.
As far as "Ballpark Franks", do you mean the ones that plump up when you cook 'em? ;)
I heard someone recently talking about putting advertising on homeless people.
Like giving them a blanket with the Nike logo on it; Just do it.
Kinda sick but Lord knows the homeless need a blanket now and then...

I think you could advertise 7-11's Slurpee on either the chest or thigh of a hooker.
Blue Star Ointment? Not good.
How about an ad for a "wood floor" company. That would serve two purposes, no?
jamie dawn: Beano would be inappropriate probably. Plump when you cook em franks might work. Glad I didn't waste my time on Supes but Pirates was good.
ct: They would but I doubt you could get a hooker to wear an ad for freeones.com.
ben: I like the batteries idea. 'They just keep going and going.'
starbender: Nice to see you back! I enjoyed the flick although the ending could have been better. Oh well, I would have watched part three anyway.
curare: Those milk moustaches are a bit provocative.
michael: No pest strips might be a little much. Homeless product placement seems strange.
phoenix: When I hear Slurpie's, I think back to the old SNL skit discussing the various forms of herpes.
What do you call herpes from oral sex? Slurpies
What do you call herpes from a dwarf? Twerpes
The list went on and on.
mike: Signed, sealed, delivered.
haha fuzz, you sure can come up with da shit.
I would think the fem hygiene ads would be a good thing. I would not mind one bit to let folks know I not only smell clean, but that I am clean. The herpes ads would scare me, Would you have sex with someone if they told you they had herpes, but take meds, and do not have an "outbreak" at the moment? Honestly?
This is priceless. What about some ani drug ads!
Have a great day.
ann: Great idea! That's where the Ball Park Franks could come in 'they plump when you cook 'em', also M&M's 'they melt in your mouth not in your hand', or scrubbing bubbles 'they work harder so you don't have to.'
oldfart's wife: I honestly wouldn't.
leigh: Like 'Just Say No' on the backside?
mimi: I am sure that they would. It's all a question of money.
Oh, the images you create in my head, Fuzz! You get me going and then I'm a few tangents away from your original story!
Yeah, don't ask, you don't want to know, trust me!
green eyes: But I'm dieing to hear! Don't leave me hanging.
travel ad for Australia - 'Have a visit down under'
Could be put in many places - 'Where's the beef?'
'A little dab will do'
'Eat more chicken, not beef'
It's amazing what one can come up with.....if you think long enough...
I would think a prostitute would be a perfect place to have ads for STD medicines! LOL
Got Milk? :)
Before ya know it hookers and homeless people will have corporate sponsers like race cars. Hmmmm...I wonder who will work on the "pit" crews...
ol'lady: Love the down under.
sherri: Ewww yuck.
robyn: You betcha, It does a body good. Thanks for dropping in.
ozy: 'Pit' crews, huhuhuhuhu. Gotta luv it.
Oh c'mon, you just know Hooters is going to take advantage of this..
OK, Fuzz, but don't say I didn't warn ya!
Verizon's, "Can you hear me now?" and I'll leave the visuals all up to you!
oooooh KY of course. "Slippery when wet"
Which reminds me of the tattoo idea of a turkey on the inside of one thigh and a Christmas tree on the inside of the other so you can say "there's good eatin between the holidays." Hehehe
I always though those Amsterdam Coffee Houses (not to be confused with Starbucks) are good source of creativity.
I hear their "brownies" are delicious...
bruce: That would be perfect.
green eyes: That guy kinda freaks me out. I bet a lawn care company would work. I even have a good tagline, 'Put your bush in our hands.'
ann: Thank you soo much!
vic: KY would be perfect. Might help with their new product, Warming Mist. And that eating between the holidays is phunny!
rocky jay: I bet the coffehouses have been the source of many illuminated ideas other than strange and unusual sandwich combonations.
See! I knew you, of all people, would follow right where I was going! ^5
Speaking of appropriate advertising... I got a kick out of this weekend's sponsorship of the Western Open Golf Tournament:
The Cialis Western Open Golf Tournament. At least they're giving name recognition to their target demographic!
What about Liquor and Poker records? Yes, it is a real record label.
I think he should also sell "butt space " too. He missed that one. just think od the large ad space cash you could make with a full back and butt.
green eyes: That's kinda scary for you huh.
perplexio: That is phunny.
metal mark: They would be a shoe in.
pixie: I can picture one of those ads for personal injury lawyers. 'Have you been rear ended in an accident?'
Next thing you know the LPGA tour will be co-sponsored by The L Word and Girlfriends magazine.
OY, OY, OY... did I say OY? ;-)
I think if they do butt ads they should advertise preperation H.
I read this somewhere else :)
**My Space.com
lol!
Keshi.
HAHA where's the beef nice
Haven't you ever heard those ebay stories? Where they sell space on their forehead and something to advertise for a month? I'd do it for the right amount of money haha. There was a dude here in Indiana that sold the "ghost" that lived in house on ebay. Crazy shit i tell ya
You can't forget the old AT&T commercials: "Reach out and touch someone"
McDonald's "I'm Lovin' It"
perplexio: At least they won't be breaking any truth in advertising laws.
lisa: Yep.
catch: The flames would look cool.
keshi: That's the trouble with commenting on a news story. But I hope my take on it was different.
phats: How much is a used ghost going for these days?
jenna: Excellent additions.
ur tke on it was EXCELLENT n FUNNY!
Keshi.
Thanks keshi.
