20 years ago, cell phones were still relatively new, and quite expensive...

How could a cell phone store in Reykjavik, Iceland, in 1995, get lots of free publicity?

They came up with a creative angle...

"Show up naked on Monday, and you'll get a free phone!"

20 naked men showed up... and the phone store became a household name!

You can read more about this wacky stunt here... (Though not everything went according to plan!)
