I love stuff like this.

Quote:

When writer David Thorpe noticed a press release for a Walmart promotion where the winning town gets a visit from Miami rapper Pitbull, he started campaigning over Twitter for people to vote for the Kodiak, Alaska location. The rules of the contest state that the Walmart location with the most new Facebook "Likes" wins a visit from Pitbull.

Does he live in Kodiak? No. He just wants to send Pitbull to the most remote Walmart location possible, just for fun.

Kodiak is an island off the coast of Alaska with a population of only 6,130. It is unknown how many of those are actual Pitbull fans. You can help send him there!
Go to the Kodiak, AK Facebook page and hit "Like":

"I'm excited to find out which local Walmart store has the most new likes so I can share the experience of using Energy Sheets® with my fans," said Pitbull.

Now get ready to get COLD, Pitbull!

I thought with a thread title like this one people would be bottlenecking the gate trying to get in here. I'm disappointed.

I guess there's not enough Friday night losers.

Sweet.

Can't stand his music, a remote island in the far North is the perfect place for him.

I have no idea who this Pitbull guy is, but the concept makes me giggle.

They're up to 12.5K likes, a LOT more than they had when this started!

I am doing my part to send Pitbull to Kodiak.

ChaseYJ · 06-30-2012, 12:39 AM

Never heard of the dude. Hell, I want a free trip to Alaska!

They pay my way and I might even break my own rule and stop in at wallyworld.

HILMAN76 · 06-30-2012, 02:23 AM

This is gonna be gooood!

Little known fact about the rapper Pitbull, he does not buy or wear bling-bling-jewelery. He says he'd rather invest in real estate than buy gold chains. Smart dude!

And now you know!

Real estate in 2008 wasn't a good buy, gold on the other hand was a very good investment.

If you haven't liked the Kodiak Walmart yet, you haven't pictured Pitbull standing in a river, biting into a raw salmon

Pitbull, frostbitten, forlorn and surrounded by an icy wasteland in all directions, drops to his knees and screams: DAALLEEeee

I'm not sure if there are any with more, but walmartnyc has around 60k. That's the minimum goal that has to be beat.

Currently at 20.7k
