Yet Another Golden Palace Forehead Ad Claimed PR Stunt

Analyzing the images and offering some theory, Adland suggest the latest eBay/Forehead ad is just a Golden Palace publicity stunt. Adland claims the tattoo is nothing but a sticker and that all Golden Palace is attempting to achieve here is free publicity. Aside from the fact that, well, that’s what this is all about, reportedly, a Utah woman, Kari Smith placed a bid on eBay which Golden Palace won for $10,000. Smith plans to use the money to send her son, Brady, to private school. Well, with the increasing insanity of increasing school tuition, maybe, stunt or not, this might be a good thing. Unless, of course, Smith was simply paid the money by Golden Palace in a clandestine agreement for publicity. The again, if she actually gets the money and sends her son to school, that’s really not a bad thing.

Someone who skips the seasonal décor every year may not be indifferent to the holiday itself, they may simply be opting out of a display aimed more at whoever walks past than at anyone who actually lives there.
