A very Ill Timed email advertisement - Funny!

AD PHOTO ADDED TO POST 8
I just received an email from AirTran advertising for a discount cruise company:

Subject line: From $159 – Carnival Cabin Closeout Sale – How fast can you pack!


And the ad is a photo of a Carnival Cabin with the words

DISTRESSED CABIN CLOSEOUT SALE!

You would think that someone in charge of this type of thing would have thought "you know, today may not be the best time to advertise this sale" or "Perhaps we should change the wording of this ad before we send it out today"


It is even funnier to me because I have been GLUED to the live feed coverage of the Splendor today, and also following it very closely the last few days, and been on other message boards to discuss it. I even took my laptop into the kitchen to do dishes and make lunch so I wouldn't miss anything!

That is great! I'm going to go thru my emails from cruise companies today to see if I got that one. Funny!

That must have been the one agency I don't get emails from!

You would think someone might have thought of some better wording!

It wasdirectly from Air Tran. I think you have to be on their email list.

There isn't a link, it was just the email that was worded that way. You click and it just takes you to 1-800- cruises.

This is the picture/text from the email. The rest of the stuff on the email are prices and things, but this is the part that had me
