Who else has heard the pathetic, desperate sounding ads on the Fan 960?
It makes me embarrassed for the station that they had to stoop to this level for advertisers.
It also has what make be the most ######ed, sorry ass jingle I've ever heard.
Oh in case anyone's wondering from the ad it's like plentyoffish.com but to pick up cougars.
Lol. Literally as I post this boomer talks about it on the radio and how lame it is. Well actually he's defending it saying the hosts don't choose the advertisers.

They must be using strategic advertising or something, they play the Cougarlife ad and follow it up with Gun Oil Lube to help make things interesting.

People listen to the Fan960 in the off season? 
I'm glad that I haven't heard this jingle yet, hopefully they will blow all their advertising funds by pre-season.

All joking aside, who doesn't love a cougar once in a while?

Sadly when you hit my age, Cougars are no longer interested in you, and you have to move on to GILFs

Yeah, CC, one old guy to another, I strongly urge you to narrow down your target search to Grade 1 and 2 teachers - I think you will be pleased.

I don't see the problem. The ad isn't great but it isn't offensive either. Stations need advertisers to pay the bills.
