"Softcore porn franchise Girls Gone Wild is claiming record sales after one of its ubiquitous basic cable ads accidentally aired during a live telecast of the Good Friday service at the Vatican.
GGW CEO Joe Francis says he received a record spike in sales.
'We may have tapped into a whole new market,' Francis said. 'It seems that many of the same people interested in the Pope’s message are also interested in ours.'"
