The Weiner may be rising, but airfares are going limp…
Spirit Airlines has launched a marketing campaign that pokes fun at the online troubles of New York City mayoral candidate, Anthony Weiner. The airline somehow makes a vague connection between an offer of $24 off airfare packages and the Weiner scandal, touting a fictitious movie production known as “The Weiner Rises Again.”
Via Spirit Airlines:
Critics are raving about our latest production “The Weiner Rises Again”, but they are also raving about our latest deal to Mexico! Book a vacation package to Los Cabos or Cancun and you’ll get $24 off the flight portion of your trip when you travel from August 19, 2013 through November 21, 2013.

“Best acting since Ron Mexico.”
The 3D was crazy, it’s like there was a weiner in your face.”
