    Depends on the venue. GoldenPalace has done it before if I'm not mistaken.

    The only problem with that would be that the people definitely wouldn't be target visitors. Unless you were running a porn site :p haha

    It would definitely catch my eye though, and I probably would try to remember the website.

    Best marketing idea ever. If you have them streak during the superbowl you will get so many hits you will become rich.

    Next year's SuperBowl, I fully expect to see four to five attempted streakers, but only one getting across the field. Sounds like a lottery, to me - but fully worth it. :)

    streaking is passe if in running mode - try dangling above a crowd naked or, better stiil, bouncing above the crowd attached to a bungey rope. I'd pay you £2.5k for that if we can come to an agreement about event and venue.

    Yes its called Guerilla Marketing. Which is basically geting the biggest return for the lowest outflow.

    I.e. Spending $1 and getting 10000 uniques to your site.

    It does work especially if you get it covered by local/national press.

    Yes, ideally the streaking would be a part of your larger PR plan, so that a few seconds of streaking turns into a few seconds times hundreds of plays on hundreds of TV channels. :D

    If you paint your URL and send a guy running down the street no.

    Paint your URL and get some lunatic to run through a major internationally telivised sporting event.... YES
