What's the most risque ad you've ever aired?

T

TANKSBACK

This question came up after WDTN-TV aired a gay nightclub ad late last night. "Freedom of expression" works for the subject matter, but the really repulsive part was the "Village People" style guys in the video. PUH-LEESE! Back in the late 70's or early 80's WING-AM aired ads for an escort service late at night. Station management required me, as production director, to find and use a female voice that was not a regular on-air talent. Our traffic director at the time got a real kick out of voicing these ads. Off the air, she caller herself "The Impulse Slut", after the name of the service. I know some of the Clear Channel stations run ads for strip clubs. Any other real late-night debauchery going on right now that I've missed? ;)

My current station (not in ohio) runs ads for an adult book store, a gay bar, and larry flynt's hustler club as well as one for midget wrestling featuring "Toad The Pissed Off Dwarf" at least there's some amusement to be found in the slumping economy ;)
 
We aired spots on 97X for a certain nightclub on Route 4 in Hamilton/Fairfield that at the time was called 'Hummers'. The club was formerly Brewskie's.

The copy was written by the club owner but I made sure that changes were made before the spots hit the air, because some of the double entendres (sp?) would have made Ron Jeremy blush.
