Ty Pennington of Trading Spaces and Extreme Makeover fame is appearing in a viral, security cam style, for Alltell. In the viral, Pennington appears to be getting ready to take a shower until, in the last frame, he pops up and shouts, “Hey! What are you looking at?” A link then takes you to an Alltel page promoting its “txt2win” million dollar sweepstakes which Pennington say will help you build the home of your dreams. OK, so the security cam thing has been done many times before but more than one person sent this link to us so, apparently, it’s getting around which, afterall, is one of the major points to a viral efforts. And, anyway, who doesn’t want a chance to win a million bucks?
