Norfolk, VA (WTKR) — Driving down I-64 as you approach I-564, you might see a billboard that has everyone talking.
A plain black billboard with the words “Wanna get married?” written next to a man’s smiling face pops up on the display every minute or so.
As drivers in the area scratch their heads and tap their brakes to get a better look at the sign, News 3 spoke to the man behind the sign, who tells us it’s a marketing technique – but he wouldn’t hate to get a date out of it.
Scott Blackmon is a real estate agent with Broadsight Realty.
“There is a lot of competition out there in dating and in business,” he said. “I figured, why not try to kill two birds with one stone – all real estate ads look exactly the same, so I was trying to think outside the box.”
This is just the first of the ads Blackmon plans to post. The next one will be revealed on Monday.
