That bootleg "CU in the NT" campaign for Australia's Northern Territory certainly got plenty of attention last year,rape video sex but of course, it didn't thrill everyone.
One complaint to the country's Advertising Standards Board (ASB) called it "Crass, offensive and not suitable to be displayed where children can see it."
Although it's a sentiment the Northern Territory's tourism department agrees with, it didconcede the campaign created plenty of travel buzz for the state.

"While some people might have had a private giggle, it is not something at all appropriate for a marketing campaign.
"It's not something we would do or condone, but at the same time it does hanker to some of that larrikinism that is still up here in the Northern Territory."
The ASB upheld the complaint, determining the campaign was "obscene and inappropriate."
However, the ASB has no real power over the guerilla group of creators, cheekily named "NT Official."
The authority will instead "liaise" with NT Official and Facebook to try and convince them to take campaign down.
Turns out swearing can get you a pretty long way.
