Comcast airs Girls Gone Wild commercial during Vatican’s Good Friday service, sales skyrocket

So there you are in Philadelphia, wrapped up all nice and toasty in your Snuggies at 2 a.m. You’re watching the Vatican’s Good Friday service and what does your local Comcast cable system accidentally show? A commercial for “Girls Gone Wild’s Search for the Wildest Bar in America.”

It might have been Good Friday, but this was bad. Real bad.

“A spokesman for the cable company said the ad was aired inadvertently due to a test of the Emergency Alert System, during which the channel airs regular programming — which in this case included an advertisement for “Girls Gone Wild’s Search for the Wildest Bar in America” DVD.”

Now Girls Gone Wild head honcho Joe Francis says sales skyrocketed in Philadelphia.

“We may have tapped into a whole new market,” he said. “It seems that many of the same people interested in the Pope’s message are also interested in ours.”

Based on that statement, it looks like Joe Francis found the Wildest Bar in America. Now would someone do him a favor and get him a taxi. He’s in no shape to drive.

  • Do you think Joe Francis is a tool? Do you think GGW was degrading? If so this might be the casting call for you!
    Do you despise any celebrities and want to rant about it? Do you love any celebrities so much you could be called a celeb stalker? You will be paid $250 for this hidden camera show. You must be 18 years or older and live in Southern California.
    Find a team of two...your co-worker, your sibling, your friend, or family member. You could be the next Dynamic Duo!
