10 Bizarre Advertising Spaces

milliondollarhomepageOur previous post on 5 Interesting Advertising Spaces has featured ad spaces on an urn, fly, straw and even tests paper. If that post didn’t surprise you enough, check out Oddee’s list of bizarre ad spaces.

Among the list, 2 particularly caught my attention.

The first is an ad space on a bloated chin. Du, from central China, is hoping to raise 5,000 GBP to have it returned to its original state. The second is on a 42GG cleavage of a woman, which online gambling outfit Golden Palace, had purchased a 15 days ad lease for £422 back in 2005.

weird ad on chest

Golden Palace, as it seems, has dominated the bizarre advertising spaces at most fronts. Besides an ad space on a woman’s chest, it had also bought ad spaces on a forehead and on the famous million dollar homepage. Such bold actions have surely generated huge publicity for Golden Palace and this could very well be their hidden agenda. But are such actions helpful to the brand image? Maybe for a casino. But it is definitely not encouraged for others to employ the same tactic.

Catch it full on Oddee.
