Man Sells Advertising Space on Neck to Globat.com to Support Family

01:36:44 - 16 May 2006

Web hosting provider Globat.com continues series of unique sponsorships with neck tattoo

LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles-based Globat.com®, the world leader in Performance Web Hosting(TM), today announced it has purchased advertising space on a Lancaster, PA man's neck for an undisclosed amount. Robert Reames, III, 27, is a father to three young girls aged 8, 5, and 2 who provide the drive and inspiration behind Robert's tattoo idea. His wife, Jammie, is disabled and the family's finances have been tight. After seeing previous Globat.com promotions, Robert contacted Globat.com and made his case that a permanent tattoo advertisement might help the family raise enough money to buy a car.

"Being able to travel is important for a young family," said Ben R. Neumann, President and CEO of Globat.com. "Without access to a car, Robert's family is forced to pay high prices for necessities at local convenience stores and have a limited range of travel, especially with three young children. Globat.com is delighted to support Robert and we're sure he'll have a lot of fun answering questions about his tattoo!"

"I will wear Globat's tattoo as a badge of honor, and as a representation of the distance I will go, and the commitment I am willing to make for the ones I love. My family and I are very happy, and truly grateful to the entire Globat family for this opportunity," said Robert Reames, III.

Attracting media attention worldwide, Globat.com has recently launched a wave of very unique sponsorships and events such as a hamburger eating challenge and a sponsored birth under the banner of "Defying Gravity," with the ultimate goal to launch at least one such special event in each of the 50 states.
