Andrew Fischer, 20, of Omaha, who put his forehead for sale on eBay as advertising space, received $37,375 on Friday to advertise the snoring remedy, SnoreStop. Fischer will display the SnoreStop logo on his forehead for one month. ÔÇ£I look forward to an enjoyable association with Andrew ÔÇö a man who clearly has a head for business in every sense of the word,ÔÇØ SnoreStop CEO Christian de Rivel said. ÔÇ£People will always comment on something out of the ordinary,ÔÇØ Fischer said in his sales pitch. ÔÇ£People like weird.ÔÇØ But there were limits: He refused from the outset to be the conduit for any message or product deemed tasteless or unacceptable in traditional advertising formats.
