In a desperate attempt to land herself a husband, Manhattan single Amy Borkowsky has set up a website to try and raise $3 million in order to buy 30 seconds of airtime for a personal ad at the Superbowl.
Armed with the philosophy that dating is a numbers game, her aim is to advertise herself to the millions of potential husbands who will be watching the game.
Even if she doesn’t raise the $3 million, I’m guessing that the media and blog attention she is generating out of this will help end her man-drought.
