DILDO, N.L. — Dildo and porn, a fitting match.
YouPorn, an x-rated adult website, sent an open letter to Dildo – the Newfoundland and Labrador town that shares its name with a sex toy – offering $100,000 worth of free ad space on the porn site’s homepage to grow the town’s tourism.
The letter, sent by YouPorn Vice President Charlie Hughes, looks to capitalize on the town’s recent spike in popularity.
“Congratulations on your recent recognition and newfound charm that is attracting many to your town,” the letter reads.
“In order to keep up the good times my staff and I are elated to offer the town of Dildo a free ad campaign towards your tourism efforts worth $100,000 on YouPorn, which receives 20 million homepage views a day!”
Finishing quick, the letter concluded with: “We hope Dildo’s Tourism Department accepts our offer soon, so that we can bolster the town’s economy through supporting the municipal services your residents’ desire and deserve.”
The Sun contacted the Local Service District of Dildo but they did not immediately comment.
Dildo is a hot topic right now thanks to the spotlight late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel placed on the town earlier this month, which ultimately ended with him being named the town’s honorary mayor.
The letter is the most recent stunt meant to poke fun at the town’s amusing name.
In his mayoral campaign, Kimmel erected a Hollywood-like sign celebrating Dildo and called the town a “magical place.”
Kimmel claimed the joke ultimately came with a $100,000 price tag for the ABC network.
