Woman gets $10,000 for GoldenPalce.com tattoo on forehead
|
A true jubilee awaits players at Carnival Casino, with a $777 Welcome Bonus one is off to a good start. This casino can brag about having received the Customer Excellence Award in 2004 and continues to offer players the highest quality service.
Are you ready for the latest outrageous online casino GoldenPalcce.com news? An adventurous (or crazy) woman by the name of Kari Smith is the proud owner of a new tattoo - it's on her forehead - and it says GoldenPalace.com!
Call her an entrepreneur, call her what you will, 30 year old Smith, who auctioned the forehead advertising space on eBay, said the earnings will give her child, Brady, a very much needed private school education. Her 11 year old son is apparently lagging behind in his education.
Has this woman made a huge sacrifice for her son - or has see succeeded to become online casino GoldenPalaces' new billboard. If you ask her, she says it is a very small sacrifice, too.
The tattoo was inked on her forehead Wednesday. At that time she also said that $10,000 was like $1 million dollars to her. Maybe she is just seizing the moment, or her 15 minutes of fame. Whatever the case, she has sacrificed.
Even the tattoo artist tried to talk Smith out of getting the moniker for a reported 7 hours. After she convinced everyone that this was her decision, the tattoo artist put the 1 inch letters spelling the online casino's web address as close to her hairline as possible - just in case she wanted to grow bangs or wear a hat to cover some of it .
Smith discussed the idea with her boyfriend for more than three weeks, finally deciding to go ahead with it.
Smith's eBay auction posted over 27,000 hits.
Before Goldenpalace.com, came on the scene, bidding was at $999.99. The online casino chose the buy it now option for $10,000, two weeks before the auction was even over.
Are you ready for this? Apparently, this is not the first forehead the company can claim as advertisement! There is said to be another person walking the Earth with a similar tattoo. This, does not count the hundred or so other tattoos that brandish the online casino web address.
