Web Marketing at its Finest

[TJ111]

My sister is a Pilot for Spirit Airlines (www.spiritair.com), and sent me a link to their homepage telling me to check out their new Ad campaign. Check out the flash advertisement that loads to the right, and also check out the shape of the islands when it initially loads. Looks like some of their web/marketing guys slipped it right past the suits.

One accidental one I saw was on a news article titled something like "Suicidal Male Jumps to His Death", then right next to it an ad that read "Hit the Ground Running with...".

Whats the best intentional/accidental marketing you've come across? Have you ever gotten any jokes like this into a production site?

that's hysterical.

i'm hoping that people will write back with other 'jokes' like this.

i personally can't think of any i've ever seen.

There is a 'StumbleUpon' that has a series of those. -Crap like a dual-roadside billboard at 45-dgree angles to catch motorists coming in from two different directions, -that one side adveretises cigarettes, the other side, advertises a Cancer-treatment Hospital... stuff like that.

Or a church advertisement that features Jesus holding up both hands over head with hands outstretched, and on the mate side, a similarly-posed & equally-proprotioned cat with paws in the air, for a cat-food product...

Viewed from the right angle, you see both signs and find the humor
