NuVo Condoms is no amateur when it comes to promotion - last year the company shipped 365 condoms to Justin Bieber when his relationship with Selena Gomez hit the news. So when Jim Thome hit his 600th homer on Monday, NuVo snapped into action. Press release:
NuVo CONDOMS DONATES 600 CONDOMS TO CELEBRATE THOME'S 600TH HOMERUN
As a congratulatory gift for Thome's incredible feat, NuVo sent the Minnesota Twins 600 condoms. NuVo hopes this offering to the team will help keep the Twins players and their partners safe during their celebrations!
Great headline on this at SB Nation: This occasion wasn't going to sully itself .
Of course the obvious joke is that NuVo thinks the Twins might celebrate the homer with a wild clubhouse sex orgy. But in reality Thome is laboriously signing each condom so that the team can sell them on its web site.
